make public isCellType function #11

It would be very useful to be able to check a cell for the type of its contents. If a column contains both int and string data types, there currently seems to be no way of checking.

Yes, good point

It would be nice if other functions like selectRow() or getLastCellNum() could also be public

Added a new method to get the type of a cell as string. You can alter simple example 1 like this to see it in action:

println( reader.getCellType( 1, 0 ), reader.getString( 1, 0 ) );
println( reader.getCellType( 2, 0 ), reader.getInt( 2, 0 ) );
println( reader.getCellType( 3, 0 ), reader.getFloat( 3, 0 ) );
