Add JSON option to backend #48

Add option to save to directly JSON rather than Redis. Note: this means we can no longer save multiple times during an experiment, so we have to check for that.

@connorgr, I think this is what you were asking for.

This requires a few things:

code for options/defaults in experimentr.js (frontend)
logic for disabling the frequent saves if redis is not being used
code for options/defaults in app.js (backend)
code for fs.write (json) in app.js (this should probably write to analysis/results/data.json so the other scripts can be used)
documentation for options in the main readme

(Let me know if I missed anything obvious.)

Better to stick to redis for now
