Allow passing a filterset class to `filterset_factory`

It would be nice if it was possible to override the filterset class that the filterset_factory is basing the returned filterset on. A similar thing is done in the table_factory in django-tables

Yes, maybe... 🤔

I had a similar need myself the other day. (I can't instantly remember what I did; I'll look when I'm back at it.)

One consideration is Meta inheritance...

Hi @b1rger. So, I ended up defining the filter set class inline in my case, but I still think this might be a useful addition.

Is it something you'd like to work on?
