#63: Add a truncate() method to the DB class

I thought it could be useful to have a `truncate(table, cascade=False,
restart=False)` method in the DB class that would execute the
[http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-truncate.html TRUNCATE]
command on a table.
This method for quickly ''clearing'' a table would nicely complement the
`inserttable` method for quickly ''filling'' a table. Therefore I wonder
if it should be called "truncatetable". However, I don't like the
concatenation of words without camelcase or underscore, and contrary to
insert there is no single-row operation that truncate could be confused
with anyway. So currently I prefer simply "truncate" as the name of the
method.
