Add capability to edit and persist Cellfie preferences (in particular MappingMaster defaults) both globally and per transformation rule file #68

Being able to set MappingMaster configuration option, mostly comprising default values (see [1], [2] and [3]) is key to provide the user better control about the results produced by their transformation rules.

We should have "global" settings (that can be set, for example, in a new "Cellfie" tab of the Protege Preferences) and "local" settings, which are valid for a set of transformation rules. The local settings should be saved in the json file, together with the transformation rules, so that next time someone opens a file containing transformation rules and executes it, on a spreadsheet with similar structure to the one for which it was written for, they will get the same results, regardless how the Protege preferences have been changed.

This would be really cool. I have collected all the attributes in one place:

I will try to fill in the documentation for these shortly.
