[Kavita] Goodreads integration

[Doomwhite]

Idea Description

My suggestion is adding a goodreads integration, the website is a huge database for books, but it's also a good way to check your reading history/status.
From what I researched, currently we have MAL sync with Kavita+, it could be another Kavita+ feature.

The problem with goodreads is that it doesn't not have an API to access data. They turned it off in 2019 and haven't given out any new API keys since then. And since it is owned and operated by amazon, it is unlikely that it will change anytime soon. What this boils down to is Kavita would need to do web scraping to get data from the site. That isn't viable since if the site changes any than an update needs to go out in order to keep working.

Kavita is going to be using Hardcover over Goodreads actually. Hardcover should have all the goodreads data as well as Scrobbling capabilities with an API.
