Title:
  bank-statement-reconcile: import of bank statement fails to sniff the
  csv

Status in OpenERP Banking Addons:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When importing a CSV file with account_statement_base_import, it tries to auto-detect the dialect of the CSV file to import.
  I have some CSV files that cannot be detected, ending with an error: Error: Could not determine delimiter

  Example of CSV that can't  be sniffed (with many more lines):

  transaction_id,date,amount,commission_amount,label

  Currently the code is:

      sniffer = csv.Sniffer() 
      pos = utf8_data.tell()
      sample_data = utf8_data.read(1024)
      utf8_data.seek(pos) dialect = sniffer.sniff(sample_data, delimiters=',;\t')

  From my analysis, it seems that the sample of 1024 bytes is
  insufficient to guess the delimiter for this type of files. Raising it
  to 2048 bytes allowed it to guess the delimiter correctly.
