If a PDB is truncated and does not have the element column (column 77-78 of the PDB format), the function "find_protein_points_variablevolumn" in cavitydetect.py glitches.

It doesn't find any atom of the protein and prints out "CAVIAR does not find a cavity".

The selection tool in this function is based [on element](http://prody.csb.pitt.edu/tutorials/prody_tutorial/selection.html#selection-operations), there may be a work around with a selection based on atom "name".
Crash if PDB is not conform with the PDB format (missing element column)
