PrimereactDatatable: Get current table filters

Describe the bug

Hello,
I am trying to allow the user data filtering via URL in primereact datatable.
I am working on a URL generator button that shows a popup with the URL that matches the current selected filters.

I opened this enhancement request and was told to open an issue:

@Rekl0w that should be a Feature Request. OPs question from the discussion is:

How can i get the current selected filters from the table at any given time? after clicking apply in a filter menu, where does it get updated?

It's not possible atm correct?

So reproducer would be PrimeReact Doc Advanced Filter

@melloware when setFilterMeta is called, isn't it supposed to trigger onValueChange event in the DataTable? I'm using setFilterMeta and I was expecting this data change event to be triggered but it is not.

@faelperetta check the code and see what its doing. I just exposed those methods to the external interface didn't change their behavior.
