read_plates reads raw text files generated from photometer measurements of
96-well plates. The data is returned as a list but without additional first lines that are sometimes
used to provide additional information, for example, wavelength used or the date of measurement.
For comparison, this information is saved as an attribute of the list and can be retrieved
via the "info" parameter.
