Add a button to each course that would render that course as a pdf and download it to the users computer, as a way to get a local copy of the material

We need to covnert the actual dom rather than the markdown as we add custom directives

As discussed - I came up with a solution using html2canvas and jspdf (example attached below) on the create-pdf branch. This works but has the pretty significant limitations of the pdfs having both low dpi text and non-selectable text. Proposed solution is to instead implement a download markdown button on the pages. Whether this would actually be useful though might need to be discussed further.
