[Feature request] Being able to import data into CanReg5, from spreadsheets #134

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When you have multiple patient information to enter, you need to do this by hand.

Describe the solution you'd like It would be great if it would be possible to import an .xls, .csv or .ods file to create multiple patients in one go. Ideally and in order to simplify things, it would be great to have a way to first download an empty Excel template with the headers already set, so that the users would just have to add the relevant patient information at the right places.

Then an Import data... button would all the users to select such Excel file, click Import and all the patients would then be created directly.

Later on, it would be great to be able to update the existing cases with that import feature as well, where you'd need to set the correct patient id in the Excel file so that CanReg would be able to identify which patient to update.

Describe alternatives you've considered No alternatives

Additional context Either this is need when multiple new patients are created, or when laboratories are sending their results in batch.
