This PR resolves #6. It replaces sambamba with samtools in the contamination analysis.

The only other place I see sambamba used is in the coverage calculation in the Hi-C analysis. Samtools implements coverage/depth calculations, but I'm not sure if they are one-to-one replacements for sambamba. Either way, the crashes I have experienced with sambamba do not seem to happen for the coverage calculation.
