Diseases description and evidence #186

Currently, the enzyme models coming from UniProt and containing diseases have descriptions, but every other field is null/empty. In fact, this is wrong. What comes from UniProt are evidences, not descriptions.

Furthermore, for the diseases tab (EnzymeRetriever.getDiseases method) we retrieve the diseases stored in the mega-map, and then their descriptions from BioPortal, and then we are adding every evidence from UniProt to every disease from the mega-map, which is wrong.

We should figure out how to assing an evidence to one concrete disease. This should be straightforward for evidences mentioning OMIM IDs, matching the identifier of the OMIM disease, but seems more difficult in other cases.

While this is not apparent in the diseases tab, the enzyme comparison shows this high redundancy (ex. comparing P49768 and P49810).
