The default data format for X-13 is "free"

Closes #323.

@christophsax, I am unsure about this generated call. Does it sound reasonable to you? Why not something like x <- import.ts(file.dat, format = \"datevalue\", start = c(2014, 1), frequency = 12, name = \"xyz\")?

As a result:

pkgload::load_all()
#> ℹ Loading seasonal

text <- '
  series{
  title = "Commercial and industrial machinery and equipment (except automotive and electronic) repair and main"
  start = 2014.01
  period = 12
  save = (A1 B1)
  print = BRIEF
  format = "datevalue"
  name = "8081130000 - HE"
  file = "seasonal/tests/nocran/spc/x11_m1r.dat"
}'


import.spc(text = text)
#> ## import input series
#> x <- import.ts("seasonal/tests/nocran/spc/x11_m1r.dat")
#> 
#> ## main call to 'seas'
#> seas(x = x, series.save = c("a1", "b1"), series.print = "brief", 
#>     automdl = NULL, outlier = NULL, regression.aictest = NULL)
