Data persistence - localStorage

[spencer-plasse]

When beginning the project, I considered setting up a database to store user accounts and result data. Since then, I have decided to go with localStorage for persistent data (user accounts and results) as it avoids the significant extra time and effort of setting up a database, connecting it with backend processes, and hosting it or sharing a creation script for project review.

Still need to implement localStorage persistence for answers/results.

Added localStorage data persistence for user answers/results. Each result set is stored in the "results" field of the user JSON. Result sets are identified by the datetime that they were produced (unique key) and store the values of each answer, the calculated body age, and the time the answers were submitted.

TODO:

• Update data formatting in localStorage to something more user friendly (to be displayed on the "/results" page)
• Move on to the #8 task

Completed task and closing issue.
