Read Transport Version 8/9 #79

Closed selik closed 2 years ago

With a few overrides, we can change the header record patterns and read variable names longer than 8 characters and labels longer than 40 characters. Unfortunately, I have not yet found a verifiable example of a SAS Transport Version 9 file with format names longer than 8 characters, so I have disabled the test for that feature.
