Export encounters #3

Could you add a bit to export the encounters we create, so that we can share them with others? Obviously they'd need D&D Beyond, and the plugin, and access to all of the monsters in the encounter, but I think it could be useful even with all of those requirements.

On the past I thought about this feature. Export all and allow to import all is indeed easy.

Basically from DDB the extension saves the monster name, the monster "id" (not the real id, but the term that references to the monster page) and an hp (that could be or not the monster default hp). But I am not sure if legally I can allow users that do not have a certain monster to see his default hp after importing an encounter. And to check if the user has or not the monster is kind of hard. Maybe I may ask a mod from DDB if it is ok, since is only the hp and may not even be the default one (if was created with random for example). Anyways I will consider to do this one as soon I get some free time.

Thanks for the feedback!
