Create simple dataframe from xport.Dataset #99

Hi, thanks for the great package.

I'm seeing some performance issues when using an xport.Dataset object that I think might be addressed by converting to a straight Pandas DataFrame. Is there a method to convert an xport.Dataset to a pd.DataFrame?

You're welcome. Thanks for the note.

I think you can simply pass an xport.Dataset to the pd.DataFrame constructor: df = pd.DataFrame(dataset). Does that cause an error?
