New plugin to import customers and vendors from a csv type file.

From a patch by Sebastian Held.
Again the CSV file is of fixed number of fields, similar to invoice/bill importer.
Please test this.
Field list:
id,  company,  name,  addr1,  addr2,  addr3,  addr4,  phone,  fax,  email,  notes,  shipname,  shipaddr1,  shipaddr2,  shipaddr3,  shipaddr4,  shipphone  shipfax,  shipemail
Vendors don't have shipping information so even though the fields have to exist, leave them empty.
The id field is optional, if empty a new id will be chosen. If an id is used this will UPDATE
a vendor/customer with the same id.  This may not be what the user wants.  Maybe this should
be optional/selectable behaviour.
To enable the plugin, add the line:
(gnc:module-load "gnucash/plugins/customer_import" 0)
to ~/.gnucash/config.user
