Integration of Markdown for interactive descriptions #28

I've moved this from the issue opened up by @ariutta here. Ths issue is related to the kaavio-showdown library.

--- ORIGINAL ISSUE ---

  1. Should it be on its own special page similar to TissueAnalyzer or should it be part of the main pathway page (e.g., part of the description for WP554)?
  2. How should the associated data (markdown) be stored? There's probably too much data to fit into a query parameter. We could add tables to the MySQL database that map between the data and a hash of the data. Then users could visit something like http://www.wikipathways.org/pathway-presenter/WP554?presentation=e75eae5cc72665adec66f315d9a2ee250b91b1cc

Feel free to weigh in if you want to, @AlexanderPico.
