R API for "plyr-ing" similarity matrices

[shntnu]

@gwaygenomics just a heads up that the code I've been using to test things out here (private) and here is evolving towards getting a consistent API. I'm wary of creating a package – it will be yet another bifurcation in our efforts – so I am actively avoiding doing so (as you can see, a single R file!) while still following R package principles (docstrings, explicit namespaces).

Let's make a decision on what to do once we've written up the benchmark paper. Definitely no R package for now, and we can see where we are post-submission and figure out plans then. Ideally, I'd just switch over to Python and life will be simpler :D But that will really slow me down!

That didn't age well :)
