Provide Cytoscape visualisation of the data modeled in #131

Example from part of the 1.5h osmotic data, with node fill color and node label color either purple or white:

PS: I really like not having lines around the nodes. Also helps with these long node names when a shorter synonym is not available...

Example of alternative visualisation, with #145. Now the up/down regulation is depicted as node attributes rather than edges with hidden nodes.

Another example, with positive (green edge) and negative (red edge) regulations & PPIs (purple), and non-DE genes (grey) as well as overexpressed (green node) as repressed (red node) genes: 1 5_pil5_neigh1

This might give some additional trouble in Cytoscape, as node attributes are defined per network collection. So, Diffany would need to be able to calculate differential networks across different collections...

A final option is to have a pre-processing step which translates the DE genes and their FC to a difference in weight of the adjacent edges... will discuss these options with Marieke and see whether she has an opinion...

They think the translation of this node-specific data to the edge weights might make for more intuitive, condensed networks. This will avoid the collection-specific node attribute problem in cytoscape, though at the same time we will lose some information. But I guess the user will then have to consult the raw data to fetch the FC values etc.

This will be further implemented in #184
