r.in.gdal accepts multiple bands in band option

[lucadelu]

In r.in.gdal could be really useful to have band option as multiple input to import several bands (but not all) in only one command instead run it in a for loop.

I do not see how a simple for loop could be an obstacle (not more than 3 lines in bash or python). The only advantage I see is that a group is automatically created by r.in.gdal if several bands are imported.

Selective multi-band import added in r63378, please test.

Tested and it works, thanks.
