Create a new empty stream at the specified path and with the specified

Layout types are of the format: type_count

  'type' is a data type like 'float32', 'float64', 'uint16', 'int32', etc.

  'count' is the number of columns of this type.

  For example, 'float32_8' means the data for this stream has 8 columns of
  32-bit floating point values.
