Preserve information about Excel's named ranges

See original GitHub issue

In Excel, one can define a “named range”. It would be nice to be able to preserve those ranges in the dataset. Perhaps something like this:

let workbook = excelReader.AsDataSet(namedRangesInTheirOwnTables: true)

This could create additional tables in the DataSet, one table for each named range.

That is an interesting idea. If enough people vote for it, we could do it.
