Parse Newick

Encountered issue with user trying to pass in a Newick string with labels that contained brackets '()'

bnkit can't properly parse the Newick string if node labels include brackets

Possibly add catch around PhyloTree.loadNewick() in loadData() to highlight the naming requirements?

This sounds like (a) an inherent problem with the Newick format and (b) something that cannot be caught. The problem must be with programs that allow the user to type in such names.
