Describe the goals of the changes to the analysis module.

We would like to be able to obtain clusters for all samples in the Ewing project SCPCP000015. We can then use these clusters to:

What will your pull request contain?

This PR should contain a template notebook that can be used to perform Jaccard, Louvain clustering across a range of nearest neighbors parameters. (See #683 for a reference). The notebook should then plot specific clustering metrics that can help us identify the most "optimal" clusters for each sample. These metrics include silhouette width, cluster purity, and cluster stability. We may also want to include plots that compare SingleR assignments to clusters.

We should also pull out many of the functions that are used in #683 into their own utils script.

Will you require additional software beyond what is already in the analysis module?

No

Will you require different computational resources beyond what the analysis module already uses?
