Title: added hdf5 and netcdf write/read to petsc + usage example on 2d acoustic...

This PR does the following

- adds the ability to write and read hdf5 and netcdf when using petsc. The options are passed through a dictionary set in output_options={'format':'hdf5'}.
- adds one more value to the pickle: file_format, It is key for the xmf writer to figure out what format the data is in. The pkl2xmf writer will allow to load the results directly into paraview. (https://gist.github.com/sanromd/11346554)
- Add an example of write/read on acoustics_2d_variable.
- Modification to the warning mechanism in petsc io read routine.
