Title: Subset biom parser

Methods and code to subset a dense or sparse biom file, over samples or observations, without fully parsing the table. Row/column indices are updated as necessary for sparse tables.

It is currently possible to construct a table that has zero'd rows or columns. nparray, SparseMat, and SparseDict handle that file, but CSMat currently cannot handle tables like that.
