Issue: First line omitted when using get_df() method of BIDSDataFile object

Hi,

The method `get_df() `of the BIDSDataFile object omits the first line of the data file. This issue arises when calling the function `read_csv()` of Pandas, as header is set to 0 if no names are passed:

```
self.data = pd.read_csv(self.path, sep='\\t', na_values='n/a',
                                dtype=dtype)
```

This behaviour can be problematic if one is working with the physiological recording data, since they  don't have a header line and therefore the first observation would be always lost. 

This could be solved by modifying the piece of code above as follows:

```
if self.entities['suffix'] == 'physio' or 'stim':
    self.data = pd.read_csv(self.path, sep='\\t', na_values='n/a', 
                            header=None, dtype=dtype)
else:
    self.data = pd.read_csv(self.path, sep='\\t', na_values='n/a',
                            dtype=dtype)
```

Does this modification make sense?
