-Visualizations will be displayed in the `Visualization`-Part of the UI. In order for Visualizations to be loaded, a Submodel(Element) has to have a SemanticID which matches with the configured `semanticId` of the desired Visualizations. The configuration of a Visualizations `semanticId`can be done via a string (e.g. `'http://hello.world.de/plugin_submodel'`) or via an array for multiple SemanticIds (e.g. `['http://hello.world.de/plugin_submodel', 'http://hello.world.de/plugin_property']`)
