Bug Description
I would like to have a "export settings" button near the "import settings" button on Board Setup window on PCBNew. Exporting settings would be a good way to start creating this design settings. Right now, I don't know how should look the file to be imported to configure the design rules.

Someone on Reddit told that it should import from another project, so why not to improve the "Import settings" text to something like "Import from another project"?
But I think a simple generic file, with a config item in each line, would be a better/simpler approach to make it easy to maintain.
