getting started with std.csv

[gjansen via Digitalmars-d-learn]

dmd -O (2.066.1) and gdc -O3 (4.9.2)

But... as I tried to convey, I was comparing apples to oranges. I 
have now rewritten the D test simply using split(',') instead of 
csvReader, to be more similar to the python test, and it runs 
about 2x faster in D with dmd and about 4x faster with gdc 
compared to Python 3.4.3. :-)
