Export tsv files with column header by default

[kkarra]

How do I change the default behavior such that 'human readable column headers' are exported in .tsv file by default?
Thanks!

I think this should be the default-default.

I'm hopeful that this line: https://github.com/intermine/im-tables/blob/dev/src/views/export-dialogue.js#L70 just needs to be changed to true, but I'll need to ask @joshkh when he is back from holiday how to build imtables correctly as my attempts don't result in a usable script.

Recent work to update im-tables should allow im-tables to build correctly now. Adding the hacktoberfest label so other contributors are welcome to help out.
