[pdal] ignoring dimensions

Hi Steven,

It's not clear what you're asking.  If you're trying to avoid loading data
other than certain dimensions from a LAS file to save memory, no you can't
do that unless you're writing code at the API level.

Some PDAL commands use stream mode (https://pdal.io/pipeline.html#id2) when
possible to reduce memory use.

If you have another concern, you'll have to be more explicit in your
question.
