Addresses issue #14.
This forgoes the fasta and fastq readers from Fastdoop (although the IndexedFastaReader is kept) and instead uses Spark's text file reader together with window functions. This simplifies the code base and enables us to use Spark's builtin gz and bz2 support.
Compression is detected by file name suffix, supporting patterns like *.(.fq|.fastq|.fa|.fasta)(.gz|.bz2|), e.g: sample.fasta.bz2.
Compressed file reading has a slight slowdown (especially for .gz which isn't splittable, unlike .bz2), but this is a small cost in the bigger picture of sample classification, where traversing the index is the most expensive step.
This also generates compressed .fa and .fq file in InputReaderProps to test these file format readers.
