Print an attribute of a 'fsa' object to a file

Adds the content of an attribute of a 'fsa' object to a CSV file, either appending new rows or columns.

Typically used in generic.process via the design file to export numeric data during the processing.

  export.attr(x, attr, file, meta = character(0), sep = "\t", dec = ".", quote = TRUE)

`x`	The `fsa` object whose attribute is to be printed.
`attr`	Single character value, the name of the attribute to print.
`file`	Single character value, the path and name to the file to create or update.
`meta`	Character vector, the names of `x` meta-data fields to export as extra columns.
`sep`	To be passed to `write.table`.
`dec`	To be passed to `write.table`.
`quote`	To be passed to `write.table`.

New data will be appended below the content of the file with extra 'meta' columns, row names will be added only if the file was empty.

Invisibly returns TRUE on success.
