This adds a plugin to store image data in BSDF files. BSDF is a generic data format capable of storing ndarrays. We make use of an extension to add semantics to such an nd array (whether its 2D or 3D to be precise) and add meta data. In this way, we can store singleton images/volumes, as well as series thereof.
BSDF is a simple format and implemented in pure Python. It allows lazy loading of data and streaming. For imageio this means that you can stream a series of images from a remote url, or open a single file containing multiple images and read only a few, without the whole file being read.
BSDF also has implementation in Matlab and JS, so this could be a good way to e.g. send images to JS over a websocket.
Closes #14
