A bug in fromSQL is fixed (caused by typo)

The old package will show an error message in some cases.
Add $header option for csv and tsv, output header or not
Add the following instant methods
fromSQLi
fromCSVi
fromTSVi
so that these methods can be inherited.
Thanks to Michael Schlueter
Update new method, so that it can be used as an instant method as well.
Add method
rowHashRef
which returns a copy of a table row in hash reference.
Officially support TSV format via the following three methods
Data::Table::fromTSV
fromTSVi
tsv
Read "TSV FORMAT" section for details.
1.18
Fix the problem in Data::Table::fromCSV caused by null trailing fields.
E.g., a line "a,b,," in a csv file was split into two fields before.
Thanks to Karsten
Fix the warning message in Data::Table::match_string, when table contains
an undef element.
Add Data::Table::fromTSV and Data::Table:tsv
TSV - tab-deliminated file format. TSV preserves NULL element and line-break
chars in a table.
\0, \\, \r, \b, \n, \t are slash-escaped.
undef is escaped into \N.
This is based on MySQL specification.
