feat(plugins): add export-format registration hook to plugin API

Add context.formats.registerExportFormat(id, opts) to PluginContext,
backed by a new FormatRegistry (mirrors PluginRegistry's Map-based
shape). Plugins register namespaced (${pluginId}:${id}) export
formats with a label/extension/handler; the writing-studio built-in
plugin registers a trivial "sprint-summary" .txt export as a
worked example.

The plugin system lives entirely in the renderer process while the
Export menu is built in main.js, so wiring formats into the menu
required a small IPC round-trip: renderer sends format metadata to
main after plugin load (main rebuilds the menu via the already-
idempotent createMenu()), and a menu click sends the resolved save
path back to the renderer, which is the only process holding the
plugin's handler function.
