[Feature/Enhancement] Importing annotations and highlights from Zotero

[codemeleon]

Enhancement / feature description:

Currently, I am required to transfer my notes and annotations from Zotero to MindForger. It would be convenient if these two tools could collaborate and synchronize notes and annotations.

[dvorka]

@codemeleon I installed Zotero and checked what are Zotero export options:

• Do you need Zotero to MindForger conversion or also MindForger to Zotero?
• Would manual export via RDF be sufficient?

My design remarks:

• RDF export which could be converted to MD.
