Explore adding tree sequences to AlphaSimR #55

This would be a major long-term project, but would enable carrying whole-genome sequence for every individual in an efficient manner. We already track recombinations, so we have the ingredients (except mutations, but that can be added). The main question is how to do this in a clever way so that we leverage tools available in tskit C library. We should explore how SLiM and slendr are handling this, follow https://github.com/bodkan/slendr/issues/85

Here is function reference for slendr https://www.slendr.net/reference/index.html#tree-sequence-loading-and-processing
