Description
I cannot use the `byte_range` parameter with `read_csv` if the column names need to be inferred.
```python
>>> cudf.read_csv(StringIO("1,2,3\n4,5,6"), dtype=int, byte_range=(3, 6))
RuntimeError: cuDF failure at: cudf/cpp/src/io/csv/reader_impl.cu:438: byte_range offset with header not supported
```
But this works:
```python
>>> cudf.read_csv(StringIO("1,2,3\n4,5,6"), dtype=int, byte_range=(3, 6), names=['x', 'y', 'z'])
x y z
0 4 5 6
```
And this works:
```python
>>> cudf.read_csv(StringIO("1,2,3\n4,5,6"), dtype=int, byte_range=(3, 6), header=None)
0 1 2
0 4 5 6
```
