feat: add concurrent uploads and --force flag to upload command

- Add --force flag to delete all existing notes in target category before upload
- Implement concurrent uploads using anyio task groups (20 concurrent max)
- Add semaphore to limit concurrent requests and avoid overwhelming server
- Improve progress reporting with upload count and error tracking
- Update README with --force flag documentation

Performance improvement: Concurrent uploads significantly reduce upload time
from ~10-15 minutes to ~2-3 minutes for 3,633 documents.
