Summary
This adds a Better Notes export entry to the collection context menu. When a user right-clicks a Zotero collection, they can export notes from items directly inside that collection using the existing Better Notes export dialog.
The implementation reuses the existing export flow, so users can choose Markdown, Word, PDF, FreeMind, Zotero Note, or LaTeX from the same dialog as regular note export.
Motivation
Many workflows now involve collecting papers in a Zotero collection and exporting their notes for reading, summarization, or processing with AI tools. Previously, selecting a collection or the regular items inside it did not provide a direct way to export their child notes with Better Notes. Users had to manually locate and select the notes themselves.
Notes
Note Saved to ...notification per exported note. A follow-up could add an optional quiet/batch mode and show a single summary notification, but this PR leaves that out to avoid changing broader export API behavior.
