Wrap phylomatic into a service which will work as an alternative tree service for phylotastic.

New web service to get phylogenetic trees from phylomatic. https://github.com/phylotastic/phylo_services_docs/blob/master/ServiceDescription/PhyloServicesDescription.md#web-service-18

Phylomatic offers 3 different plant trees and 1 mammal tree. The examples in the docs suggest that you are using the mammals tree. Can you confirm that @abusalehmdtayeen?

@arlin, In the documentation, I have added another example which uses one of the plant trees. Actually the choice of mega tree will depend on the list of species that are given as input. If most of the species are plant species than the service will use one of the plant mega trees to get the output tree. Otherwise, mammals mega tree will be used.
