[tor-commits] [torbel/master] Add metadata to CSV export format.

[sebastian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

commit 8323b633dbccba0b3e06362cc8961a6f303557d8
Author: Harry Bock <hbock@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Wed Oct 20 00:43:42 2010 -0400

    Add metadata to CSV export format.
    
    Add metadata to CSV format specification and implementation
    (query and export).  This allows torbel to know what version
    of the CSV format to use, allowing for changes in the future
    and backward compatibility.
    
    Not implemented yet for the JSON format.
