This was developed at the request of and sponsored by the department for Health Evidence of the Radboud UMC Nijmegen.

This PR implements the option --flipmaf for palinear, palogist and pacoxph, which will flip the reference and alternate alleles for MAF < 0.5. In cases of rare alleles, this can give better estimates of the betas.
