Allow choosing the export file name

Chat2DB Edition

User Problem

The export workflow allows the user to choose an output directory, but it does not allow choosing the output file name. Generated names are difficult to recognize and require a separate rename after every export.

Concrete Use Case

An engineer exports schema and data snapshots for several environments into the same folder. Before starting each export, they need to name the file orders-staging-2026-07-27.sql or orders-production-2026-07-27.sql so the artifacts are immediately distinguishable.

Product Area

Import or export

Proposed Outcome

The export dialog should let the user choose both the destination directory and file name. It should provide a sensible default name and extension, preserve the chosen export format, and handle an existing file with a clear overwrite or rename decision.

Alternatives Considered

Export with the generated name and rename the file in Finder or the shell afterward.
