Meryl

This is 'meryl', a near total rewrite of 'meryl' that appeared in both project kmer and Celera Assembler.

IMPORTANT: Get the latest meryl code from this repo. This is not compatible with old meryl dbs built from canu 1.8 or earlier. The new meryl is significantly faster than the previous version.

meryl dbs are no longer in .mcdat and .mcidx file format. Meryl db is now designed as a DIRECTORY, containing 64 binaries + 64 indexes (128 files).

Dependency

• gcc 7.4.0 or higher
