Minimal bookmark enhancement to support verse journal
Background: I don't have time/will to type notes in the app, but a chronological list of the verses that stood out for me during Bible reading helps me to meditate for longer on them as I revisit the list. It helps me see patterns on what God is saying to me over time. And Bible supports this to some extent already through bookmarks (thank you!) but it needs improvement.
Minimal changes to better support this (in order of preference, even just one change will help):
- allow bookmarking of verse range (else you have to bookmark each verse separately and they show in reverse order)
- bookmark any verse, not just one at top of page
- show original translation in bookmarks as you may want to bookmark different translations and see them at same time.
- allow same verse to be bookmarked more than once or at least update a bookmark's chronological position when you bookmark it again so that it will show up at the right place
- show the date bookmarked next to verse location at the top in the list
- ability to remove bookmarks by book or label
- easier to toggle bookmark display on or off
- ability to export/import bookmarks

The outstanding suggestions have mostly been addressed by my bookmark-improvement pull request. See https://github.com/mjdenham/and-bible/pull/111

I am so thankful that the latest release addresses the first 2 items already! I would still vote for the rest to be done in order of preference.
