No binary STL format support #38

I am upgrading the CADMesh version integrated in a Geant4-based code I develop, from v1.1.0 to the most recent release, v.2.0.3. I used to run visualization examples with a couple of binary STL files, which worked for the older CADMesh version only.

This is probably not an issue, as one can always use a commercial CAD software to jump from binary to ASCII format, but I couldn't trace a related commit. Was this simply disabled? Or the fact that it worked in the past for binary files was an unwanted feature for some reason?

Thanks (and thank you @christopherpoole for the very nice package).
