/**
In EdgeHTML / PWA downloading content by creating a download link on the fly and calling Click (traditional method) does not work.  
TL;DR: See below for an implementation of the file download for EdgeHTML / PWA.
 
 Longer explanation:
 When running with the Spartan WebView as a HWA (Hosted Web App) or PWA MS Store, you’re running inside a UWP container with the associated security restriction. This has 2 implications:
  
 •	msSaveOrOpenBlob is not defined in this execution context for security reasons
 •	you can’t download directly a file on the file system using the a.download + a.click approach
