axlStringCSVParse() bug. Allegro crash.

Big fat warning on using axlStringCSVParse().

Passing it a string over 1024 characters will CRASH Allegro.
Some folks at Cadence aren't doing proper testing.  SKILL strings are not limited to that number.

And when the whole thing crashes, good luck with debugging anything.

Now trying to figure out a workaround so I don't have to attempt to write my own custom parser.
I need all of the benefits of this function, but without the size limitation.
