ODS output #196

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. gov.uk requires spreadsheets in ODS format. Currently gptables only outputs XLSX files.

Describe the solution you'd like Option when using write_workbook to change output file format

Additional context Underlying xlsxwriter package only writes to XLSX - would likely require writing to XLSX, reading and rewriting to ODS

pyexcel may offer a solution, but need to test whether essential accessibility criteria are correctly converted

I second this feature request - as it currently takes much time for us to manually convert XLSX to ODS
