Allow importing generic highlights, maybe even via API

It might be useful to support other import formats like blank-line separated quotes in a text file.

Design hint: Might make sense to use polymorphic models?

Import sources:

  • ~~Line separated text files~~ (implemented)
  • Pocket (has no API for highlights 😞)
  • Instapaper (#7)
  • Wallabag
  • RSS Feed (might work for many providers, eg. Instapaper provides one)
  • Libby by Overdrive
  • ... <your favorite service here!>

I just implemented the possibility to import text files where highlights are separated by blank lines (I used such a format in my pre-kindle times).
