ProteinAlignmentBlock should account for AA sequence matches #84

Right now match-type pblocks are generated only from match-type tblocks. There should be an additional "abacusing" step during the generation of pblocks that allows match-type pblocks to include codons that have been substituted at the transcript level but encode the same AA. This will become especially important for analyzing protein features such as domains.
