Title: light parser is now sparse backend agnostic

Handles `CSMat`, `SparseMat` and `SparseDict`. The current `set_sparse_backend` code works at runtime, but only before `biom.table` has been loaded. As is, the test block is not specific to any sparse backend, but the code works when setting the sparse backend within `biom_config`.
