MAGEtab export: skip protocols in protocols in the IDF that are not used in the SDRF #57

Reported by @sneumann in https://github.com/ISA-tools/ISAcreator/issues/281

When exporting a transcription profiling assay from a multi-assay ISAtab file, all protocols in i_Investigation are exported to idf.txt. This confuses ArrayExpress. A solution could be to include all protocols in idf.txt which are referenced from the sample and assay tables and hence in the sdrf.txt. Otherwise, I will have to manually clean the ISAtab files before exporting for the respective repositories. Yours, Steffen
