Provide tools for data checker. Add a single "open and check" method which read a data set e.g. IAF and test 1) file format, 2) header consistency and completeness 3) validity of filtering process 4) gaps, derivatives and spikes

I was thinking of using some simple python script calling MagPy functions to generate a full PDF report - perhaps some tens of pages with statistics and graphs of the observatory of interest + some neighbouring observatories for comparison. This would be similar to the function that auto-generates the yearbook. Input: observatory codes (the first one being the observatory of interest) and/or path to data. Output: tex file and/or pdf. This could probably be done in parallel. Having a quick GUI option is certainly useful, but having the PDF could allow even less tech-savy datacheckers to have a closer look. All I need is a list of checks and list of graphs that need to be generated, but Jan promissed to provide that.

Data Check procedure included and tested now (v0.4.0, a96f79b6be463942dc76165bab2b7cb68b5e4c34). Data check generates a txt report. Jan's list has been considered.
