List field type

Homogeneous lists would allow readers to implement statistical analysis calculations such as min/max, mean, standard deviation, and percentiles.

Average and Moving Average fields (added in v0.3.5 and v0.5.0 respectively) store their list of values in Python and only expose single fields to readers. Issue #13 is a nice improvement on that tactic (readers don't see the list, but can see multiple values).

Exposing lists to readers will probably take a mmstats binary format change, so I'll probably focus on #13 and other improvements upon the existing binary format (v1) first.
