Stream audit event CSV file

Tan Le requested to merge 246742-stream-csv-file into master

What does this MR do?

Stream audit event CSV file.

Before this MR

  • Fetch in batch of 1k
  • Write to a temp file on the server
  • Once reached the limit 15Mb or completed writing the complete CSV, load the file in memory
  • Dispatch it the client
  • User will see a download box

In other words, we currently don't offer a streaming experience as intended. This is a current limitation with our CSV builder that affects all CSV downloads.

After this MR

  • Fetch in batch of 1k
  • Write to a stream
  • Dispatch it the client
  • User will see a download box

This feature is still under a feature flag audit_log_export_csv.
