That patch went out of it's way not to check more of the list than was
necessary, but after sending it, I kept thinking that it does extra
things which possibly negate any performance benefit of not checking the
whole list. So here is a simpler patch does the same thing, but goes
over the whole list. I'd love to hear a more experienced emacs lisper
weigh in on which is better.

Subject: [PATCH] Fix error prone babel table output format detection

* lisp/ob-core.el: Test that all elements are in a list are lists or
'hline instead of just the first.

org-babel table output uses different formatting for a list of lists,
but detects it incorrectly causing an error. An example of a block
causing an error is an emacs lisp source block containing just 1 line:
'((1) 2)
