Add direct datafile upload support (directupload.py) to pyDataverse  #157

@cmbz

Description

@cmbz

Background
Support for direct upload of datafiles using Python is available via the following standalone script related to the Harvard Dataverse Repository: dataverse.harvard.edu/util/python/direct-upload/directupload.py

This script enables users to upload many datafiles and their associated metadata all at once before requesting reindexing, rather than calling the API for each file resulting in a system performance hit due to frequent reindexing.

Request & Rationale
Incorporating this functionality into pyDataverse would benefit Dataverse API users and pyDataverse users at all installations who need to upload large numbers of datafiles.
