API to allow updating content of an entry

[yamada321]

• I have read this document: https://miniflux.app/opinionated.html#feature-request

Related to #2033 but solve more generic use cases, e.g. highlighting certain keywords of an entry based on heuristics implemented outside of miniflux, options to "preprocess" a feed such as to 1) machine translate, 2) summarize via llm, 3) add other information like if the article is being discussed on certain forums.

In the current python API, I believe the only field that update_entries can alter is (un)read status.

This also could partially address the problem concerned in #1493 : to improve visibility of posts from feeds that update less frequently than the feed who flood the inbox. With a more capable API, it would be possible to have a simple scripted plugin who add visual cues or numerical weights for the articles of interest. (Although I believe implement a sorting outside of miniflux would have issues.)

Thank you.

Thank you so much! I haven't tried yet, but this is a life saver. I have been sheepishly altering the database directly via some cron jobs as a workaround, which is no more soon.
