Show better error for empty columns on the first row about polestar HOT 4 CLOSED

Can you provide your csv file in a pastebin? That will help us debug this.

While trying to create a file that causes the error, I found the cause: Polestar crashes (or rather: fails silently) if the first column has an empty value. So that does not work:

"","B","C","D","E","F"
1,2,3,4,5,6
2,3,4,5,6,7

but this does:

"A","B","C","D","E","F"
1,2,3,4,5,6
2,3,4,5,6,7

Thanks. We might show better warning in the future. Keep in mind that this is a research project, we assume that the input data should be reasonably clean.

This will be considered as we're rebuilding Voyager which will contain all features in PoleStar.
