Support for saving games in Javascript puzzles.

This is done by getting midend_serialise to produce the complete
saved-game file as an in-memory string buffer, and then encoding that
into a data: URI which we provide to the user as a hyperlink in a
dialog box. The hyperlink has the 'download' attribute, which means
clicking on it should automatically offer to save the file, and also
lets me specify a not-too-silly default file name.
