Clear and concise description of the problem

Hello! Thanks for all your effort. AnyType is amazing.

I find myself wanting the insurance of being able to export my data as a generally readable format (markdown). And I realize that the AnyType app lets you do this with a button, but I'd love to automate the process.

Having a command in the cli that does the same thing as the AnyType app would enable that, and I think it's a highly desired feature from searching through the community forums.

Suggested solution

# Suggested CLI...
Usage:
  anytype export [options] <space-id>

Export a space.
  
EXPORT OPTIONS
  -d, --destination DIR            The output destination (defaults to .)
  -f, --format FORMAT              The export format: (markdown, anyblock)
  -e, --encoding ENCODING          If exporting to anyblock, one of: (json, protobuf)
  --files                          Include files
  --archived                       Include archived
  -a, --all                        Include files and archived objects

Alternative

No response

Additional context

If I got a briefing on how exporting works in the app I could try to contribute a pull request, but I'm totally new to this codebase so i'm not sure where to start.
