Currently, when Spellbook reads corrupted or invalid Spellbook data at startup, the data is copied into the invalid.spb file which is located next to the data.spb file where all user data is stored (both files are located under userData/Spellbook for Windows, the app's files directory on Android, ~/Library/'Application Support'/Spellbook or ~/.local/share/Spellbook on Linux).

If this happens, Spellbook should do one of the the following things:

Tell the user that the data seems corrupted. Inform them that adding anything to Spellbook in this state will override their data.
Allow users to try reload the invalid data (e.g. after they made changes)
