DIAMOND v0.9.23

• Added shortcut --long-reads to set suitable parameters for long read alignment: --range-culling (query range-based hit culling), --top 10 (locally report hits within 10% of the best alignment score) and -F 15 (use frameshift alignment mode).
• Fixed a performance issue for very long query sequences. The "longs reads" mode can now efficiently align query sequences that are several megabases in length.
• Added support for using a FASTA file instead of a Diamond database as the --db parameter in alignment workflows. Note that this incurs substantial overhead and should not be used for large databases.
• Fixed an issue that could cause too high memory usage.
• Added output field qqual to print query FASTQ quality values to the tabular format.
• Changed license to GPL.
• Raised compiler requirement to GCC 4.6.
• Added option to use the DAA output format for diamond view.
• Added CL (command line) and VN (version) fields to the @pg SAM format header line.
