Add "Term" as a filter option when creating new Meeting Pattern Groups

NAU will be utilizing new "COVID-specific" meeting pattern groups specifically for this academic year, Fall 2020/Spring 2021. They would need the ability to limit the selection of meeting patterns to specific terms, since schedulers should not be able to select the “COVID-specific" meeting patterns (designated only for use in Fall 2020/Spring 2021) while building for future terms, e.g. Fall 2021/Spring 2022.
Under "Allowed Sections" in the below screenshot, users would need the ability to list “Term...Is...X” (note that they cannot use "Parts of Term" because they have multiple conditions all united by the "AND" option, and therefore wouldn't be able to state “Term...Is...X...or...Y")
Note: This is not a one-off issue related to COVID planning. The Registrar's office is likely going to adjust meeting pattern per term (morph them), and, given that scheduling for several terms / the entire academic year occurs all at the same time, they would need the above-mentioned functionality.
