enable downloading log as a CSV

[jywarren]

It'd be great to be able to download the log as a CSV! Of course, you can just copy and paste it into a file right now. But still, a one-click button would be nice!

var csv = connection.history.received.join('\n'); // the CSV data

// old school, but doesn't seem to work for me?

window.open("data:text/csv;charset=utf-8," + escape(csv));

or generate a link: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17564103/using-javascript-to-download-file-as-a-csv-file

<a href="data:text/csv;charset=utf-8,'+escape(csv)+'" download="webjack.csv">download</a>

We should put the timestamp (and ideally the better-formatted date + time) in the filename; new Date().toJSON().slice(0,10).replace(/-/g,'/'); gets the date, and we can add timestamp after that maybe...

Let's put the button here! https://github.com/publiclab/webjack/blob/ce5d2a943bd18e55911a7ecbef7702570e533164/examples/index.html#L55-L58
