Make downloading of all viewings optional #19

SolO/EPD/EPT has for viewing directions; each delivered in a separate data file. Right now, all viewing files are downloaded for a requested day, even so the call to solo-epd-loader specifically asks for a single viewing direction and only returns that data. This has been included in the beginning because usually we have been interested in having all viewing-direction files anyhow. But it makes sense to have this at least as an option, so that you can deactivate this behaviour in case you want to only have e.g. the 'sun' viewing direction.

This should be tackled after or together with #12 (Use sunpy_soar for downloading data from SOAR)
