Add a time slider for dynamic date ranges similar to the Statewide Efficiency Explorer

Code: https://github.com/California-Data-Collaborative/efficiency-explorer

Time slider is running as an animation using Torque. It starts with the earliest date in the data and runs to the last, with each date as a step. The slider can be dragged to any date, but the label only displays month/year, not day. This is because the total time series is greater than 1 year. We might want to make the date visible somewhere, possibly on click of the slider so the user can see what day they are dragging to.
