Make experimentr users aware of privacy issues w/ Mechanical Turk ids

[codementum]

• Bring in the paper that talks about identifying MTurk users via their IDs
• Provide guidelines for releasing experiment data (using the experiment id we already automatically generate)

(Inspired by sharoz)

Might be worth defaulting Experimentr to use an anonymized hash (e.g.,
SHA1) for data analysis and export. Then include a warning whenever the
Turker IDs are used instead of hash.

Right-- Turk IDs are mainly (only?) used to prevent multiple attempts.

Exporting still needs some work, but when we revise it some sort of privacy warning / restriction would be a good feature.
