add krakenuniq as alternative to kraken 2 #800

Closed ilight1542 closed 3 years ago

New module/tool for pipeline

This would implement krakenuniq to metagenomic profiling repertoire of eager

Aim of krakenuniq is to use number of uniq k-mers to reduce false positive flags

This module would likely require the creation of a custom database (similar to how malt currently works) but the databases are not backwards compatible with kraken2 (currently implemented)

no longer implementing, functionality within kraken2 already
