Scan the directory where Fm3-Edit saves its label data on Mac OSX, and
parse the file for Axis consumption. Axis is expected to then show UI to
the user to offer to import them as tags.

Matches Fractal label colors to Axis tag colors.

Caveats:

  • Only works on FM3 at the moment. I don't have another device to
    discover where their app files live. The file parsing likely/hopefully
    will work, but we need to know what directory it lives in.

  • Only tested on Mac OSX. Paths are different in Windows and Linux so
    I'd expect it to break there.
