fix typo
Fix failure when adding a row to an empty masked Table

Also fixed another issue where (with masked table) calling
add_row() would add a row copying the first row instead of the
advertised behavior of adding a row of "zeros".  The docstring
was clear that it should be zeros.
Merge branch 'fix909' of github.com:hamogu/astropy into fix909
Improve according to suggestions in discussion on #909
This should fix issue #968; this handles the situation in the following way:

If opening a file in a writeable mode a warning is raised and mmap is
disabled even if it was explicitly asked for.  This is done through a
new check that mmap.flush() is available--this check is performed on all
platforms and should require minimal overhead but we'll see... (the
check is only performed the first time an attempt is made to open a file
in writeable mode)
Added a note in the known issues page and a changelog entry

update tests to return string

Also, I added a check to test if format functions return a string (only
once, when it is called first). This will be a common source of error
and this test allows us to provide a meaningful error message
for 95% of all cases.
