Allow user to skip header rows #6

Description

This extension would be very useful for me, except that it doesn't parse correctly when there are extra header rows.

recline.backend.parseCSV parses the data just fine, but I end up with only one field because just the first record (which is a header) is used to determine the fields.

Here is an example of my csv data:

PBO Station Position Time Series. Reference Frame : NOAM_I08

2007-05-29,3.60, -1.75, -7.53, 1.61, 1.37, 5.00, final,
2007-05-30,-1.84, -0.90, -5.66, 1.62, 1.39, 5.02, final,
2007-05-31,-1.00, 0.14, 7.83, 1.62, 1.40, 5.12, final,
2007-06-01,-0.44, -3.47, 0.63, 1.62, 1.39, 5.02, final,
2007-06-02,-0.75, -0.64, 1.05, 1.61, 1.39, 4.82, final,

The 9th row is the "real" header row which should be used to determine the fields. Perhaps makeView in viewer.js could have an option to skip some records?
