Removed format-csv module in favor of papaparse

no issue

- The aim was to extract format-csv to become an external dependency. After some analysis found out that native papaparse method `unparse` was achieving the same results with a lot better test coverage and stability. Because papaparse will become Ghost's default csv processor in near future decided to integrate papaparse instead of extracting module for the format-csv module's code, which would become redundant soon anyways.
- For reference papaparse will substitute current csv-parser lib because it's better performance and maturity.
- Performance comparison can be checked here - https://github.com/Keyang/csvbench#result . At the time of writing papaparse is rougly 40% faster than csv-parser
