Handle all CSV files not just links to CSV files #4

Looks like use of chrome.webRequest and background process could work here ...

Material to look at

I have experimented with a background page and can get it to intercept access to csv files but I don't have a way to display anything back to the browser.

Thought about a redirect to Data Explorer but don't think that will work (cross domain etc)

Aside: we probably want an event page not a background page.

Perhaps you can look at: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/json-formatter/bcjindcccaagfpapjjmafapmmgkkhgoa

Would be good to look for text/csv in the content type
