Hey team,

First of all, LOVE this package. Has made working with VCFs so much less painful for me.

Feature request

Any function that takes a filepath should be able to acept a pathlib.Path object in addition to the current str type.

Keep up the awesome work!

Thanks @mbhall88, this would be a nice enhancement. May be hard to get to in the short term but if you have any bandwidth at all then a PR in this direction would be very welcome.
