64b612f2a8 [FEATURE] Import layers to data providers in background
Flips the drag and drop import of layers to browser data sources
to use task manager, allowing these slow imports to occur
in the background.

384369c3c4 Rename QgsVectorLayerImport to QgsVectorLayerExporter
Since the majority of users of this class will be exporting
an existing map layer to a data provider, the QgsVectorLayerImport
name is misleading and suggests that this class is designed
just to bring layers "into" QGIS.

Explicitly naming the class "Exporter" should help API users
discover this class.

Also cleanup API and improve docs
