Version 0.4.1

New features:

- `scatter` command:
    Option -c can now take coordinate ranges like -r, so -r is deprecated and
    will be removed in the next release.

- `genome2access.py` script:
    New -x option to exclude additional regions. Added a new file
    "data/access-5k-mappable.hg19.bed" which used this option to exclude the
    Encode "Duke" and "Dac" low-mappability regions.

Also:

- Improved the help/usage messages for several commands. Added a "version"
  command that prints the current CNVkit version. (Thanks @HenrikBengtsson)
- Tuned CBS calling parameters to improve segmentation accuracy according to
  some benchmarks.
- Sped up a few slow functions identified by profiling. In particular,
  `metrics` is much faster now.
- Fixed bugs/incompatibilities in plotting commands and cleaned up the source
  code (Thanks @chapmanb and @roryk)

CNVkit can now be obtained and run as a Docker container:
