Release Notes

General Updates:
* A makefile to simplify the process of downloading and installing the required softwares (except for ABySS) under the Trans-ABySS `prereqs` directory. Please note the specified versions of the softwares in the makefile. The makefile probably does not work on all platforms; please modify the makefile as you like. Here is an example usage of this makefile:
```
cd prereqs
make
cd ..
export PATH=$PWD/prereqs/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD/prereqs/lib
```

transabyss:
* Incorporate ABySS distance estimates for path extensions.
* Lowered the amount of diskspace required for temporary files.
* Skip paired end assembly when the de Bruijn graph assembly generates an edgeless adjacency graph.
* Option to skip graph simplification by specifying zero iterations: `--gsim 0`
* Option to skip the redundancy removal procedure: `--noblat`

transabyss-merge:
* 2 new options to merge assemblies with abyss-map: `--abyssmap`, `--abyssmap-itr`. These two abyss-map methods are quicker than the default BLAT method, but they require more memory and cannot merge contigs with mismatches. `--abyssmap` and `--abyssmap-itr` should generate the same merged assembly. `--abyssmap-itr` requires less memory but it is slower.

transabyss-analyze:
* Fixed bug where cluster jobs would result in a non-zero exit status.
* Changed the analyses output directory names: `fusion`, `indel`, `splice`
