Fix LoadDaveGrp to interfere less with LoadAscii

Description

LoadDaveGrp::fileCheck() is not very good at looking for the exact signature of a Dave file. It gives a high score to files that are simple n-column ASCII files. This should be fixed.

To test, load a file containing the following text using the Load algorithm: 

# X, Y, DY
0.1, 1.0, 0.0
0.2, 2.0, 0.0
0.3, 3.0, 0.0

Give the file a name with a .txt extension.

The Load algorithm should try to use LoadAscii, not LoadDaveGrp.
