Issue 45 fix

Fixes issue #45
Also contains the code from the other PR I made, I'm sure I can figure out how to change that at some point but don't feel like doing it right now.

@G0rocks Nice little function! However, I don't think this goes in the source code of this package; it's very specific, and it doesn't need to be hard-coded into the source to work. The VPP.store is accessible from the main script.

Alternatively, you could add it in the UtilsMod.py file, where it would make more sense to have it.

Thanks :)
And actually, until this issue is dealt with then it basically needs to be hardcoded in to work.

So if I understand you correctly, you mean that anybody who wants to use python-VPP to write the polar plot data into a csv file should make their own code to make that happen and that python-VPP can and should only be able to output the polar plot into the results.json file?

But I can move it to UtilsMod.py and it can stay? Because I need to work with this polar after generating it and can not use the json file. Using the csv file makes it way more usable to my use case.

As the other issues, #42 and #43, are dealt with in PR #51 then I'm going to close this PR and make a new one just for issue #45

Dear all, having it output to a csv will be very useful too

Moving this to the UtilsMod.py was a little bit of a tricky thing because of the dependencies but worked eventually. Please check the new PR, approve and merge when it is ready.
