Subject: [PATCH] Force example CSV to download, not open in browser
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

We wouldn’t wan’t anyone just seeing the raw CSV data in their browser – it isn’t clear what a user would do with it at that point. And we wouldn’t want it navigating them away from the send page, because this might cause them to lose their place.

This commit forces the file to download using the HTML5 `download` attribute:

> This attribute instructs browsers to download a URL instead of navigating to it, so the user will be prompted to save it as a local file.
