Metamask-extension: Request: Export UTC JSON format keys

[aakilfernandes]

Allow exporting private keys as a UTC file. ethereumjs-wallet has the javascript logic for this

This should actually be a fairly easy feature to add, the hard part being that this will touch a lot of files, from the backend to the front-end, but it could be easy because you could copy how we currently export private keys. We made that system very modular,

I'm adding bounty worthy for that reason, although this would also be a good feature to make a tutorial out of, because it would teach how to use our entire stack...

@danfinlay @vs77bb is it still on your radar? If so, is it still bounty worthy? I have a working prototype and I can invest some more time into this :)

As a workaround, install the "MEW CX" Google Chrome extension, import the wallet using the MNENOMIC, and export "Keystore File (UTC/JSON)".
