Add the full taxonomic classification to JobID_classifications.tsv #36

Hello, thank you for developing Metabuli, it has worked great with my test datasets!

One minor suggestion is to add or have an option to add the full taxonomy in JobID_classifications.tsv or a similar report.

For example, if a read or contig gets classified down to species level, such as Escherichia coli using GTDB pre-built database, it would be great to have the full d__Bacteria; p__Pseudomonadota; c__Gammaproteobacteria; o__Enterobacterales; f__Enterobacteriaceae; g__Escherichia; s__Escherichia coli output automatically included in the report.

This feature would make metabulis output way more user-friendly and interpretable, especially for people who don't want to spend time sifting through taxID numbers.

Cheers!
