-Off by default; engine fork isolates new code paths from old code paths,
so no integration tests change yet
-Experimental implementation is currently BROKEN due to a serious issue
involving file spans. No one can/should use the experimental features
until I've patched this issue.
-There are temporarily two independent versions of LocusIteratorByState.
Anyone changing one version should port the change to the other (if possible),
and anyone adding unit tests for one version should add the same unit tests
for the other (again, if possible). This situation will hopefully be extremely
temporary, and last only until the experimental implementation is proven.
This is in response to a request from Mauricio to make it easier
to use the downsamplers with GATKSAMRecords (as opposed to SAMRecords)
without having to do any cumbersome typecasting. Sadly, Java
language limitations make this sort of solution the best choice.
Thanks to Khalid for his feedback on this issue.
Also:
-added a unit test to verify GATKSAMRecord support with no typecasting required
-added some unit tests for the FractionalDownsampler that Mauricio will/might be using
-moved classes from private to public to better sync up with my local development
branch for engine integration
