make sure taf-writing tools all have -sc #55

This PR makes sure that taffy norm, add-gap-bases, sort and annotate all have

-s --repeatCoordinatesEveryNColumns : Repeat coordinates of each sequence at least every n columns. By default: 10000
-c --useCompression : Write the output using bgzip compression.

The -s option is particularly important as without it, taffy index does not work very well (you can end up with just one record / contig).
