SampleSheet write method Dialect Options #130

Description

@Spill-Tea

Currently, the method to write a sample sheet from given data uses the csv.writer from python stdlib. At current, the default formatting uses the "excel" dialect. Meaning newline characters default to "\r\n".

Adding keyword arguments to override the default dialect behavior would be helpful.

def write(self, handle: TextIO, blank_lines: int = 1, **kwargs: Mapping) -> None:
    ...
    writer = csv.writer(handle, **kwargs)
    ...
    

Which can be used like so, for example:

sheet = SampleSheet(...)
sheet.write(handle, lineterminator="/n")

# --or--
sheet.write(handle, dialect="unix")
