User story

As a partner, I want documentation on generating alternate flat-file destination formats so that I can adapt the system to my specific needs.

Flat-file dumpers are registered in Ingestor.inserters; currently only json has been written. A partner wanting to generate flatfiles in an unsupported format would have to write an Ingestor subclass with its own insert_ method, include the method in the subclass's inserters, and set DATA_INGEST['DESTINATION_FORMAT'] and DATA_INGEST['INGESTOR'].

Acceptance criteria
