Better API

[fikovnik]

It would be nice to use some "standard" functions, for example:

• length - gives number of values
• summary - returns a list with details about the content of the db, this itself should be an S3 class so it can have its own printing, ...
• [ - access the elements
• close - closes the DB
• ...

0f91baf adds length, [, close and summary.

summary currently shows the path of the db, its number of elements, and whether it is in write mode.
I may also add whether the index is built, and in that case, the distribution of types inside the db, , the distribution of sizes, the distribution of the most frequent classes.

@fikovnik any other info you would like to see in the summary?

Ideally, it should give something close to what was in the `experiment-db.tex`.
