v0.11.0

Final Draft files.

• Open a Final Draft (.fdx) file from Open, by dropping it, or (in the desktop app) from your file manager's Open with. Drafter brings it in as a new Fountain script. The .fdx is never changed, and Save asks where to keep your .fountain.
• Nothing is lost silently. Anything Drafter can't map comes in as a [[fdx: …]] note, and Problems lists each one.
• Export as Final Draft (.fdx) (Export menu, File menu, or palette) writes your script for anyone who works in Final Draft. It carries scene headings and numbers, action, speeches and dual dialogue, emphasis, notes, synopses, sections, and the title page.
• Import and export are built from the file format's structure and hand-made test files. Testing against real Final Draft files is still to come.
