Version 4.0.0

This is a complete rewrite based with a Buffer implementation. There are no major breaking changes but it introduces multiple minor breaking changes:

• option rowDelimiter is now record_delimiter
• option max_limit_on_data_read is now max_record_size
• drop the record event
• normalise error message as {error type}: {error description}
• state values are now isolated into the info object
• count is now info.records
• lines is now info.lines
• empty_line_count is now info.empty_lines
• skipped_line_count is now info.invalid_field_length
• context.count is cast function is now context.records
• drop support for deprecated options auto_parse and auto_parse_date
• drop emission of the record event
• in raw option, the row property is renamed record
• default value of max_record_size is now 0 (unlimited)
• remove the record event, use the readable event and this.read() instead

New features:

• new options info, from_line and to_line
• trim: respect ltrim and rtrim when defined
• delimiter: may be a Buffer
• delimiter: handle multiple bytes/characters
• callback: export info object as third argument
• cast: catch error in user functions
• ts: mark info as readonly with required properties
• comment_lines: count the number of commented lines with no records
• callback: pass undefined instead of null
