Support BAM formats generated by SMRT Analysis 3.0 #8

HDF5 output file formats (cmp.h5, bas.h5) were deprecated in v3.0 and replaced by industry standard BAM formats. Because there is no way to convert BAM formats back to bas/cmp.h5 formats, SMALR should be able to detect when BAM files are input and support using them for single-molecule methylation detection.

A summary of the new BAM file structures can be found here.
