Updated databases/p5-Data-Table to 1.54

1.54 Sun Feb 10 21:35:02 PST 2008
  Modify fromFileGetTopLines method, remove dependency on bytes
  bytes::substr causes infinite loop in some older version of perl

1.53 Thu Jan  3 21:13:40 PST 2008
  add "use bytes" to Table.pm
  Just patched test.pl, because some OS cannot open in-memory file.

1.52 Fri Dec 14 11:48:42 PST 2007
1.51 Wed Dec 12 15:36:22 PST 2007
  1. Add a class methods Data::Table::fromFile(file_name), which can
  guess the file format and call fromCSV/fromTSV internally.

  fromFile relies on the following new methods
    fromFileGuessOS(file_name)
    fromFileGetTopLines($file_name, $OS, $lineNumber)
    fromFileIsHeader($string)
    fromFileGuessDelimiter($arrayRefToLines)
  to figure out if the input file is from UNIX/PC/MAC, whether its first
  row contains column headers, and whether it uses ",", "\t" or ":" as
  field delimiters.
  It then calls either fromCSV or fromTSV to return the table object.

  $t = Data::Table::fromFile("myFileName_CSVorTSV_HeaderOrNoHeader_UNIXorPCorMAC
");

  Please refers to the updated document for details.

  2. When fromFile/fromCSV/fromTSV reads from an empty file, it returns
  an undef object, rather than quit.

  3. Provide more informative error message, when invalid column header is found
.

  4. fixed a bug in 1.51 where fromFileGuessOS failed in Windows
  Thanks to patches provided by "whitebell".
