Changed the FLAG values of paired-end alignments to the CTOT or CTOB strands so that reads can
be properly displayed in SeqMonk when imported as BAM files. This change affects only paired-end
alignments in --pbat or --non_directional mode. In detail we simply swapped the Read 1 and Read 2
FLAG values round so reads now resemble exactly concordant read pairs to the OT and OB strands.
Note that results produced by the methylation extractor or further downstream of that are not
affected by this change. FLAG values now look like this:
I don't have any --pbat or --non_directional libraries with which to test. However, I think this will cause problems with methtuple. Specifically, read-1 when mapped to CTOT or CTOB has the "second in pair" flag set when it is really the first in the pair. SImilarly, read-2 when mapped to CTOT or CTOB has the "first in pair" flag set when it is really the second in the pair. So this change seems like a workaround in order to get Seqmonk to display things in a desired way, but it also breaks the meaning of the flags according to the SAM specifications. Have raised with Felix FelixKrueger/Bismark#41
