Fix issue #201 : add PDAL reader

[Husamm]

Implemented initial PDAL support that currently handles only LAS file formats, laying the groundwork for future enhancements and additional file format integration.

Fix: #201

That looks nice! If you want to only add .las suport, the next step would be to add testing:

You need to:

1. Find a small license-compatible .las file
2. Add a test in application/testing/CMakeLists.txt
3. Add CI logic to build pdal

Of course, you may want to add more file formats, but that can come in another PR.
