[Biopython-dev] Bio.SeqIO.FASTA fix

[Michael Hoffman]

Bio.SeqIO.FASTA.FastaReader.next() will return a SeqRecord that has
the id attribute set to either a list or a string depending on how
many words are in the definition line (list if there is one word;
string if there is more than one word!). This is a fix so that it will
always be a string.

OK to check in?
