Improvement: import/export saves per game

[ruvaldak]

We can export all GBCC saves, but we cannot export saves for singular games, and can't import saves at all. Becomes an issue if, say, you want to move a save from one emulator to another, or if you get a new device and want to move your save from your old one to the new one. Without imports, you're forced to start a new save from scratch, even though you can export the saves.

You can actually import saves at the moment, but it's not very obvious. The import button also lets you select .savs, and they will be imported, and should work fine long as they're named the same as the corresponding game.

But yeah, the file management in general is a little obscure - I wrote it at a time when Google was making SAF mandatory, and it was unclear whether it was going to be possible to do normal file management stuff in the future. I plan to improve it at some point.

Oh wow, that is obscure. There was no hint or anything indicating we could import zips or savs at all.

Yeah, as well as file management stuff, one of the things on my todo list is to make a guide / faq in the app, to make it much more clear that you can do things like that.
