Title: Import general tabular data

Implement importing of general tabular data, such as CSV and TSV, into P-Store.

`pstore import` has two new options, `-d`/`--delimiter` and `-u`/`--quote`. By default, the field delimiter is `,` and quoting is disabled, so the command works as before.

The feature is implemented using [Sheets](https://github.com/jvirtanen/sheets), a simple and fast C library for reading tabular text formats. It is released under the MIT License.

**Note:** I have not yet run extensive performance tests for the branch so you might want to hold off merging this. However, all comments are very welcome.
