Summary
Exporting and importing is kinda unreliable in the current version of deck: not everything on the cards is contained in the export, so replicating a 1:1 copy on a different instance is not possible.
In this PR, we propose a new import / export engine and UI. Users can now select, what should be imported or exported. Its now possible to export and import the entire board as-is including all attachements, archived cards, labels, etc.
Furthermore, by deselecting "Cards" in the import dialog, users can now import only the board structure and use their existing boards as a template for new ones.
New export UI:

I created a small test-board that can be used for validation of the functionality:
