Add script to test write_biom output based on python lib #5

Open joey711 opened 7 years ago

joey711 commented 7 years ago

Script would go in inst/scripts and be run as external shell command (e.g. system) from a new unit test, creating an implicit Suggests-type testing dependency on the availability of an up-to-date biom-format python library

The main point is to avoid re-implementing the validation tests from the python library, and to more quickly identify bugs as format specs/validation change.
