WIP Add simple Zotero integration #23

Add simple Zotero integration such that we can read on the database at the default location Zotero uses. These references can then be used within the journal, where we ideally can at specific locations cite a certain source.

In future, these references can then be used for more advanced functionality such as:

We assume that this database is never replaced, only updated. If this were to happen, the mapping within a journal would become outdated. Therefore, a journal is linked closely to the zotero library of a user, meaning that a journal currently cannot easily be shared without breaking this mapping. In future, we can look into some export options to alleviate this issue.

TODO

In future, we can use other reference managers, but for now we only use Zotero.
