Description

Currently `getSymbols.csv` only handles date-based indexes (it calls `as.Date` on the first column in the csv file). It would be nice to be able to read intraday data from CSV.

The first step would be to allow the user to call a function other than `as.Date` on the first column of the CSV. Then it might be nice to support CSV layouts where the date and time are in different columns (e.g. [this question stackoverflow](http://stackoverflow.com/q/18747407/271616)).

Note that `read.zoo` might provide some useful insight how to handle both of these cases.
