Research direction
Compare loading the same hierarchical OAS file in KLayout 0.30.9 and 0.29.8, noting when the failure occurs and whether file size or hierarchy matters. The issue names no source files or tests, so first locate the OAS loading path and any relevant regression tests. Done means the larger file opens in 0.30.9 without std::bad_alloc.

Description
I'm using Klayout 0.30.9-win64 (downloaded as binary from the downloadpage as zip-file.
When I'm loading one of our bigger layouts. I get after some time i get an error. std::bad_alloc.
The file I'm trying to open is about 202MB in size and contains some hierarchy.
This is a regression though. I can open this file (and even some bigger ones) with klayout-0.29.8 it opens without problems.
