tsvSelect does the primary work of the tsv-select program.
Input is read line by line, extracting the listed fields and writing them out in the order
specified. An exception is thrown on error.
This function is templatized with instantiations for the different --rest options. This
avoids repeatedly running the same if-tests inside the inner loop. The main function
instantiates this function three times, once for each of the --rest options. It results
in a larger program, but is faster. Run-time improvements of 25% were measured compared
to the non-templatized version. (Note: 'cte' stands for 'compile time evaluation'.)
