This pull request introduces several new features and improvements to the BIGr package, including new functions for filtering and processing MADC files, generating genomic relationship matrices, and enhancements to existing functions. It also updates package metadata and dependencies. The most important changes are summarized below:

New Functionality

• Added filterMADC function to filter and process MADC files with various quality control options. This function supports filtering based on mean read depth, number of microhaplotypes per locus, and other criteria, and can optionally save filtered results to a file.
• Added madc2gmat function to convert MADC files into additive genomic relationship matrices using the VanRaden (2008) method, supporting both "unique" and "collapsed" processing modes.
• Added thinSNP function (exported), and new exports for allele_freq_poly, solve_composition_poly, and madc2gmat to the package namespace. [1][2][3]

Improvements and Bug Fixes

• Updated madc2vcf_all to read MADC files without altering column names, preserving original headers.
• Various bug fixes and improvements to existing functions, as described in the updated NEWS.md.

Package Metadata and Dependency Updates

• Updated package version to 0.6.1, changed maintainer email, and added new dependencies on rlang and stringr. [1][2][3]
• Updated NEWS.md with new features, bug fixes, and version history.

R/filterMADC.R:1

• The condition checks alt_base but then uses the same condition to filter ref_base and pos_ref_idx. This should filter based on the positions where alt_base contains invalid nucleotides.

The comparison chr > 1 should be length(chr) > 1 to check if the chromosome vector has more than one element.

Suggested change

	if(length(chr>1)) chr<- paste(chr, collapse="_")
	if(length(chr)>1) chr<- paste(chr, collapse="_")

The comment uses roxygen2 syntax ##' which is not appropriate in test files. Use regular R comments # instead.

Suggested change

	##' # Create sample SNP data
	# Create sample SNP data

[nitpick] The magic number calculation (1/as.numeric(ploidy)) should be clarified or extracted to a named variable. The comment explains the logic but the implementation could be more explicit.

Suggested change

	denominator<-(1/as.numeric(ploidy))*sum(p*q, na.rm=TRUE)
	ploidy_ratio<-1/as.numeric(ploidy)# Scaling factor for allele ratios based on ploidy
	denominator<-ploidy_ratio* sum(p*q, na.rm=TRUE)
