Most ASCII STL without solid's name won't load #33

At least OpenSCAD and FreeCAD (and probably other applications capable of producing ASCII STL) do not place space after the word solid when it's not followed by name.

(The only article saying that the space should always follow the word solid is the one on Wikipedia and I haven't yet found such information in any of the cited sources.)

Okay, I loosened the requirement for an STL to be recognized as ASCII.

There's no formal spec for the format, so I went by the Wikipedia description, but might as well be generous with what we accept...
