#218 Added class using Append Blob as alternative to Block Blob
Fixes
Issue # 218 Possibly Related issue # 191
Description
AzureBlobStorage class uses the 'Block Blob' which does not allow append operations. I made a separate class that implements the same interface but uses 'Append Blob'. Splitting this into a separate class ensures backwards compatibility and non-breaking change. The new class can now be used as an alternative and has full append functionality however performance may be slower as 'Append Blobs' are not optimized for speed but for append operations. This functionality unlocks the ability to do chunked uploading.
