Import labels from text file

See original GitHub issue

It may be possible this functionality is already present but after 30 minutes looking through menus and searching I can’t find it.

When reverse engineering small databases on custom OSes (e.g. for retrocomputing) it may be possible that a selection of labels is already known (e.g. of the OS API).

It would be nice to be able to import a file of references as a simple NAME=ADDRESS list.

Here’s an example that I’ve used on 6502dis:

OSCLI=$FFF7
OSBYTE=$FFF4
OSWORD=$FFF1
OSWRCH=$FFEE
OSNEWL=$FFE7
OSASCI=$FFE3
OSRDCH=$FFE0
OSFILE=$FFDD
OSARGS=$FFDA
OSBGET=$FFD7
OSBPUT=$FFD4
OSGBPB=$FFD1
OSFIND=$FFCE

Since Ghidra uses Jython, the entire public Java API is accessible from Python. The GhidraScript and FlatProgramAPI classes get automatically injected into the Python scripting environment, so you don’t have to import anything special to access the public methods in those classes.
