 Following from message on qgis-user list at

 http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/qgis-user/2010-December/010628.html

 relating to QGis crash caused by delimited text plugin.  This error
 appears to be due to reading files with variable number of fields, which
 is tested in the provider constructor function, but not in the nextFeature
 function.

 The attached patch should fix this.  It takes a slightly different
 approach to previously - instead of ignoring lines with the wrong number
 of fields, it adds blank strings to ensure that there are the expected
 number.

 Also fixes a problem with line number counting.
