CSV output out of availibility Reports

[Sand Philipp]

Fyi,
I found the patch here:
https://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=7388484&forum_id=1872

as I said before, I would greatly appreaciate it, when this patch would be applied to the avail.cgi by default. As Ethan does a lot of patchwork these days on the avail.cgi, it's pretty hard to always modify the new version of avail.cgi and then test it.
