The parser's semantics are now cleaner and the implementation more
robust. Cell parsing now follows the semantics of the standard input
stream (same as of standard UNIX's read), but instead of reading in
bytes or builtin types, we are reading full cell records. This has the
following implications:

1. Empty and comment lines are consumed silently.
2. End-of-file will be set on the stream only if a read operation
   returns zero. Practically, this means, eof bit will be set in the
   stream at the first attempt to read a cell record after the final
   cell record in the stream was read.
3. Exceptional conditions in the stream (e.g., eof or bad bits) stop the
   parsing process without raising an exception and return control to the
   user which is responsible to deal with them. The only exceptional
   condition that we handle internally is the presence of very long lines,
   in which case we raise an std::runtime_error().

Thanks to these cleaner semantics, the parser is now able to deal with
files not ending with a new line. The previous version would have missed
the last record.

Due to (2) the following code for reading from an input stream will
yield an additional default constructed cell record at the end:

while (!swc_input.eof()) {
    cell_record cell;
    swc_input >> cell;
    // do sth with the cell
}

According to (2), after the final record is read, eof is not yet set at
the stream, which means the while loop will be entered one more time.
The attempt to read a record from the stream then will raise the eof bit
and no cell will be read in, leaving `cell' at its default constructed
state. To avoid such a side-effect, the best way to read records from an
input stream is the following:

cell_record cell;
while( !(swc_input >> cell).eof()) {
    // do sth with the cell
}

In this case, after the final record is read, the next attempt to read
in a record will set the eof bit and won't enter the loop.

A very basic parser of SWC files. The role of the parser is to extract
cell records from an SWC file line-by-line, which will then be used to
construct the neuron cell models.

The parser currently does only a simple linewise processing of the cell
records. This practically means that the validity of the input is only
checked at the cell record level.

More advanced input processing, such as detection of duplicate cell ids,
holes in cell id numbering or multiple cell trees in a file are not
currently treated.
