cochran: add support for importing the exported CSV files
The Cochran Analyst software can export the basic dive information as CSV files (comma-separated values). Individual CSV files contain just one particular type of information: depth, temperature or cylinder pressure, which is rather inconvenient. However, the way subsurface works, you can just import these CSV files all as individual dives, and then subsurface will automatically merge the dives with the same date and time - and in the process it will also merge all the samples. So it turns out that we don't really need any special handling. You can literally just do subsurface <list-your-cochran-export-files-here> and you're all done. Of course, the CSV files really *are* pretty useless, since they don't contain all the nice information about where the dive took place etc. So you literally just get the dive profile. But that's better than getting nothing at all. I'd love to actually be able to parse the real native Cochran Analyst software CAN files, but in the meantime this is at least a starting point. And if I'm ever able to parse those nasty CAN-files, this makes comparisons with the exports much easier. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
