Adding support to directly parse BEAST format trees #71

Amazing work on the package!

This is a feature request - it would be nice to have support on the I/O to directly read in a tree in BEAST format. The current NEXUS parser doesn't handle the additional information that are encoded within the BEAST tree format.
