[OneNote] Import drawings #264

Since the importing of drawings fell through the cracks in the initial implementation of the OneNote importer:

Even though drawings were not mentioned in the original requirements, they are a very important part of OneNote for me and other users. Currently, the only available option was the microsoft/InkMLjs library which still has a dependency on JQuery 1.5... I decided to take on the challenge of rewriting it in TypeScript, but sadly that was too big of a goal to finish before the deadline, so I plan on working on the rewrite as soon as I can.

... and drawings are one of the main ways people take notes in OneNote, I think it's essential that this be added to the OneNote importer, as was intended. As claremacrae stated:

I understand why drawings would be hard, but without them, it’s not a complete migration and I would just leave everything in OneNote.

So that's why I created this issue to follow up on and track the implementation of this essential feature, without which the OneNote importer has limited use for many people.
