Replace BibTex urldate with note

Automatically replaces the BibTex urldates with note attributes for all BibTex entries to show the date in predefined templates which do not support the urldate attribute by default.

@phdthesis{key,
 author = {name},
 title = {title},
 url = {http://example.com},
 urldate = {02/18/2018}
}

Will be converted to

@phdthesis{key,
 author = {name},
 title = {title},
 url = {http://example.com},
 note = {last visited at 02/18/2018}
}

The prefix can be passed as an argument to the command-line interface.
