Add support for folders to the Archive view #63

Description

@herzbube

This feature would probably be worth a lot to many people because it would allow to organize an entire library of .sgf files. Things that should be taken into account:

  • It's a lot of work!
  • Competitors might hate Little Go for this
  • Use a dedicated root folder that does not contain any other stuff (e.g. Documents/Archive). The current root folder is the application's Documents folder that may contain other stuff (e.g. the document interaction Inbox folder)
  • Allow exporting a folder, or the entire archive as a .zip file via document interaction. This can be used to backup the archive.
  • Importing should also be considered, however this must be designed carefully as a generic .zip file may contain all sorts of things. Design ideas:
    • Use .littlegoarchive as an extension instead of a .zip file. Of course this only serves to obfuscate and is no protection against manual intervention.
    • Scan the content of the .zip file, i.e. only import folders and files with extension .sgf
  • Instead of, or in addition to, using folders a tagging system would also be useful
