This adds centromere position data for the genome of baker's yeast, using data from the Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD, https://www.yeastgenome.org). This enhancement was motivated by #223.
It also refines handling of centromere rendering. Classification of a centromere position as "telocentric" (which entails special rendering) now uses relative centromere position instead of absolute base pair coordinate. Now, centromeres within 5% of a chromosome's length from its end are considered telocentric. Before, it was within 2 million base pairs from a chromosome end -- problematic if the chromosome is smaller than 2 Mbp, like all yeast chromosomes.
Coverage decreased (-0.005%) to 89.665% when pulling d1ea7c25206ab9419c6d85d080014569005ea1da on yeast-centromeres into 7669122b8d49e850a0a8b4c96745a1c99add2117 on master.
