dwca2csv.py: Extension names in desc.txt not consistent across taxonomic groups #4

Flagging that the extension names (i.e. type column in *-desc.txt) are not consistent across taxonomic groups.

For Begonia, the names are: ['Diagnostic' 'Distribution' 'Morphology' 'Habitat' 'Conservation' 'Phylogeny' 'Threats' 'Threat status' 'Ecology' 'Dispersal' 'Habit' 'Management'] For Solanaceae, the names are: ['distribution' 'general' 'genetics' 'conservation' 'use' 'biology']

These inconsistencies will need to be accounted for when extending this pilot to include multiple taxonomic groups.
