Specify a "default" parser

[Jolanrensen]

While we can specify a parser per index or column name, we cannot specify a "default" parser for when we do not know how many columns the file will have or which names the columns will get.

It may be beneficial to be able to call

.putParserForName("colA", Parsers.DOUBLE)
.defaultParser(Parsers.STRING)

which will read the CSV in such a way that colA will be parsed using the double parser and all other columns will be parsed as String. This would essentially disable the column type inference.

I think this will do what you're asking. Kindly let me know if it works for your use case; it not we can try to provide something.

.putParserForName("colA", Parsers.DOUBLE)
.parsers(Collections.singletonList(Parsers.STRING))

That seems to work! Thank you very much :D
