read.ctd.itp()
reads ice-tethered-profiler data that are stored
in a format files used by WHOI servers as of 2016-2017. Lacking
documentation on the format, the author constructed this function
to work with some files that were on-hand. Whether the function will

An object of ctd-class
. The details of the contents
depend on the source file. The metadata
slot is particularly
variable across data formats, because the meta-information provided
in those formats varies widely.
