Add support for populating the databases by using CSV files #14

Currently the only way to populate the InfluxDB database is to run the MTConnect application on the server to fetch the MTConnect data stream from the agent url. It should be straightforward to include an upload file dialogue box to the same model element which takes

A CSV file as an input (it needs to have at least two columns called "time" and "measurement", any other columns are optional)
Parses it as if the data is from the MTConnect agent
Stores the data into InfluxDB instance

7d24eb61d6631e47fd24f92924bcd80cd776f951 The database elements can be used to populate underlying databases. Even though the "populator" plugin can be invoked either from DatabaseLibrary or from a Database element, only the later is implemented currently. To implement the former, some changes in terms of invoking worker threads are needed (not sure if the feature is required though).
