Description

It would be nice to have an "Export Current PSBT" button on the signing page, that includes any signatures that have already been gathered in the downloaded file (and one wouldn't need to unnecessarily enter the Coldcard flow).

That way, the file could be shared with a collaborative multisig parter, who uses the "Import PSBT" button to stage the transaction with all current progress, apply additional signatures, and then broadcast or continue to pass it along.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the existing Import PSBT button's code path and UI implementation. Create a new Export PSBT button that serializes the current PSBT (including any signatures) and triggers a file download. Ensure the exported file can be re imported using the existing Import PSBT button.
