Issue reported by Massimo Bider.

The output of dbamsg dump --csv is changed in 7.2:

Some field names are changed (e.g. edition is now master_table_number)
The fields are now quoted with ""
The date has now a uncomfortable format
- e.g. "representative_time","2015-5-27 9:0:0" was date,2015-05-27 09:00:00

I fixed the date and removed the quoting on integer, decimal and missing fields.

I left the new names following a rename effort in wreport with the goal of using names that actually match how things are named in the BUFR and CREX standards: for that reason I would rather keep the new names. If that causes problems, I am available to discuss possible solutions.
