Adding Utility function (getChatterFile) to query the Chatter API and…

… download a file

    /**
     * Utility function to query the Chatter API and download a file
     * Note, raw XMLHttpRequest because JQuery mangles the arraybuffer
     * This should work on any browser that supports XMLHttpRequest 2 because arraybuffer is required.
     * For mobile, that means iOS >= 5 and Android >= Honeycomb
     * @author Tom Gersic
     * @param path resource path relative to /services/data
     * @param mimetype of the file
     * @param callback function to which response will be passed
     * @param [error=null] function to which request will be passed in case of error
     * @param rety true if we've already tried refresh token flow once
