Merging Ribo Files #17

It would be useful to add merging functionality to ribobase.

Consider the following scenario:

Initially we have two ribo files: study_1.ribo and study_2.ribo, where study_1.ribo contains two experiments: experiment_10 and experiment_11 and study_2.ribo contains two experiments: experiment_20 and experiment_21. We want to create another file study_1_2_combined.ribo containing the experiments of both ribo files: experiment_10, experiment_11, experiment_20 and experiment_21.

It would be great to have a function such as:

merge_ribo_files( ribo_1, ribo_2, combined_ribo )

to implement this.
