feat: replace bwa-mem with bwa-mem-2 #72

Closed franciscozorrilla closed 2 years ago

bwa-mem-2 is apparently a faster and more efficient drop in replacement for bwa-mem. We should replace the older version for the newer one, this would make the crossMapSeries and abundance more memory/time efficient.

Note that bwa-mem-2 is still not production ready, check back in a few months/years or search for alternative faster mapper
