Note hash
Each note has a unique hash for jumping a note to a note. You can check it in InfoPanel.
In this case, the hash is3bfa3f3e67aef359ac6f-b5176bbf1cc5f34cd578. This is a combination ofStorage keyandNote key(${storageKey}-${noteKey}).
The storage path is stored inlocalStorage.
Why cson?
CSON supports multiline string. So we can use diff much easier.
