Description of feature

A new error mode has been observed in Illumina NovaSeq X data. Some reads exhibit artificial interspersed poly-G sequences. Now, Brian Bushnell has released a new tool, that can (in combination with other tools from the BBTools suite) filter the affected reads.

We would like to quantify the number of affected reads by default for new projects. Therefore, we should include an assessment into Seqinspector.

This entails:
