Added function that pulls input data out of table and inserts it as hidden input elements in the form (so form submission can work with Scroller)

* wqflask/wqflask/static/new/javascript/show_trait.js - Added function "get_table_contents_for_form_submit" that is called with submit_special (that is called for correlations and mapping from the trait page)
