RStudio addin 'insert Zotero bibliography': request to support json / yaml

The RStudio addins are really great ! ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿš€ They bind so well (and fast) to Zotero!

Currently, the addin 'insert Zotero bibliography' implements the bibtex format.

Given that 'Most users should use CSL-JSON format (.json) for their bibliographies.' (from bbt_write_bib() documentation), it seems sensible to have the option (~addins) to insert json or yaml.

Right now I detect this using bbt_guess_format(bbt_rstudio_editor_filepath()), so if you have a .json or .yaml file open, it should guess this properly.

You're right, it does! ๐ŸŽ‰ (I was merely trying this inside an Rmd file, just to see how the addin behaves)

Maybe the behaviour can be clarified a little more in the readme of the repository, especially the fact that it is format-aware. Right now the explanation on the addins is quite brief - while these are sooo nice!

Not perfect, but I documented a bit of the addin behaviour in the README!
