A function to read SS3 results as an FLStock object

Results of a run of the Stock Synthesis sofware, SS3 (Methot & Wetzel, 2013), can be loaded into an object of class FLStock. The code makes use of the r4ss::SS_output function to obtain a list from Report.sso. The following elements of that list are used to generate the necessary information for the slots in FLStock: "catage", "natage", "ageselex", "endgrowth", "catch_units", "nsexes", "nseasons", "nareas", "IsFishFleet", "fleet_ID", "FleetNames", "spawnseas", "inputs" and "SS_version".
