A Swiss Army knife iterator for files (or any iterator of strings)

- Strips lines
- Keeps track of the current line: `current_line`
- Keeps track of the line number: `position`
    - Specify position if entering in the middle of a file: `FileIter(f, position=10)`
- Peek at the next line: `peek()`
- Jump ahead `n` lines `jump(n)`
- Check if empty: `isempty()`
- Filter out unimportant lines:
    - Always filter: `FileIter(f, filter_func=is_data)`
    - Filter only single next(): `filter_next(filter_func)`

```python
>>> def is_data(line: str) -> bool:
...    return len(line) > 0 and (line[0] != "#")
>>> my_iter = FileIter(
...     ["Hello", "", "# comment", "World", "How", "are", "you?"],
...     filter_func=is_data
... )
>>> next(my_iter)
'Hello'
>>> my_iter.peek()  # peek does not respect filter_func
''
>>> next(my_iter)  # skips "" and "# comment"
'World'
>>> my_iter.position
3
>>> my_iter.current_line
'World'
>>> my_iter.jump(3)  # jump does not respect filter_func
'you?'
>>> my_iter.position
6
>>> my_iter.isempty()
True
>>> my_iter.peek(default="default")
'default'
```
