I have written a simple SeqIO adaptor for reading in a large sequence 
in fasta format (ie Jim Kent's golden path representation of a
chromosome).  This uses Ewan's more memory efficient
Bio::Seq::LargePrimarySeq implementation for large > 100 MB seqs.
Assumingly those using this module had their own ways of pushing sequence
into this object, hopefully this implementation will be useful.  

Before I check it in, this okay to commit as part of 0.7?
