CSV file example, non-numeric data in the second line

Summary:

If I try to import a CSV file containing non-numeric data (for example, exported from Rigol DS-1102E oscilloscope), PulseView hangs.



Steps to reproduce:

Add a non-numeric line to the CSV file anywhere after the header (I tried only analog formats, like the attached example).



Actual results:

PulseView hangs indefinitely (see the screenshot).



Expected results:

An error message is expected, with at least a line number.



Versions affected:

0.4.2 release, 0.5.0-git-3ce5dd9 nighty build.
