Auto-save And/Or Better Unsaved Dialog

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When I've just edited a note, and I create, for example, a new broken link and I click it to navigate, I get the "do you want to discard your changes" dialog, but it's kind of annoying.

Describe the solution you'd like
At the very least it'd be nice if there was an option, probably highlighted by default and colored green to emphasize it as the "safe" option, to just save the note and continue the navigation.

Describe alternatives you've considered
A possibly better solution would be to introduce a debounced auto-save that is also triggered immediately when navigating away from a note. Maybe there should be a setting to disable auto-save if some people don't like it.

Feature Request

1. Import menu to import txt files, docx files
2. Option to share the whole note for other users to view/search what we see in web application. basically the shared users should be able to view, search but should not have the privilege to edit/delete the notes of the entire notebook
3. type ahead with number of matches on typing and highlight text in search results in 1st level and second level navigation
4. navigation arrows to navigate the occurrences of the searched keyword in the notes when clicked via search results

[Visual View] Note selection not intuitive

Describe the bug
It's impossible to select the notes in the visual view to open them in the note editor.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to the visible view
2. Click on a note
3. Try to click the "Open in Editor" button
4. It says that you must select a note first.

This also effects the ability to inflate selection by 10% since you can't make any selection.

Expected behavior
You can select and open a note.

Additional context
I really love the idea and simplicity of this app. I might help contribute if I keep using it and find time. :)

Remove babel plugins

The babel plugins @babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties and @babel/plugin-proposal-private-methods significantly slow down performance. This can be measured with Chrome Dev Tools in the GraphView when dragging nodes. Right now, we need to use these because otherwise, Webpack does not recognize the syntax.

Let's wait until this is resolved: webpack/webpack#10216

Add table component to editor

Use correct url-metadata decoding

Right now, the url-metadata module returns strings that are not properly encoded:

Even setting the decode option and transforming the Buffer object manually to a string via buffer.toString("utf8") leads to bad encoding. Some logging in the url-metadata module indicates that this problem already arises in the underlying request module.

Perhaps this can be solved by fixing laurengarcia/url-metadata#23

Creating a new note does not discard changes of unsaved note

When creating a new note after making changes to an unsaved note, the changes are not discarded but are still present.
