querying is really slow. #68

Not sure why I'm making so many issues, since I'm working on this all by myself :(

So querying the litterfall database is really slow, which is kinda expected but whatever. We probably can't fix that much, but it would be nice to have some visual feedback that the table is loading. Bootstrap has pretty progress bars so I'm going to look into those.

There are probably more important things but it's Friday afternoon.

Spinner was a fail because javascript is single-threaded, and the $.each loop froze the whole page. Instead I changed it so the button says loading, which is still a bit of nice visual feedback.
