Download bagit package
Scheduled for: 1.12 release

Feature overview: Users are able to download data packages in their entirety directly from the data package pages.

Functional requirements:
 * 1) On each data package page, there should be a link/button to download the entire package.
 * 2) Beside the link/button is an indication of the the estimated size of the package.
 * 3) When the button is pressed, the user's browser begins to download a zip file that contains the entire data package.
 * 4) If a data package is too large to reasonably deliver in a zip file, the button is replaced with a message indicating that the package is too large to download in one piece (this is expected to be a small fraction of the total data packages).

Implementation notes: It would be convenient for the button to use the bagit packaging system that already exists.
