truncate cluster names for really long operons #156

closes #150

In the unlikely event that two distinct clusters have the same truncated name, operon plots from both clusters will be written to the same directory.

Why not add a random string to ensure uniqueness like you had proposed?

Added a line to append a random 6 character string to the truncated directory name. Tested on some real data and it seems to work fine.
