Better loading and error handling of CIF files #185

Loading incorrect cif or xye should give some information to the user about the file validity

I tried loading some standard CIF files from http://www.crystallography.net/cod/ and the load/error ratio was rather low. We should improve the CIF reader to read the valid files properly, or use a 3rd party loader (ASE, pycifrw, etc).
