Title: Export prototype - for review or merge

Includes:
- a new controller for the backend with an endpoint for getting an EAD representation of a resource.
- a new export helper for the backend for preparing and returning requests for export / serialization representations.

Open Issues:
- Should serializers use stream writing rather than DOM? (waiting on info from nokogiri team)
- What to do with requests that will take too long
- perhaps a batch api
- perhaps a fork for large files - return a claim url instead of the document.
