PING mode (P not G)

ping mode.

When ping=True is used to create the ARD object, alleles in P-groups are included in addition to the alleles in G-groups in the corresponding lg/lgx groups. By default, ping option is set to False.

To use the ping option, set the ping option to True.:

    my_config = {
        "ping": True,
    }
    ard= ARD(config=my_config)

This is primarily to address situations like C*06:17 reducing in lgx mode to C*06:02 since it is in the P group C*06:02P but not the G group C*06:02:01G.

Also the P-group and G-group names are now derived from the first allele. This affects the following G-groups in the current lists:

C*;02:02:37/02:10:01:01/02:10:01:02/02:10:01:03/02:10:01:04/02:10:01:05/02:10:01:06/02:10:01:07/02:10:01:08/02:10:01:09/02:10:01:10/02:10:01:11/02:10:01:12/02:10:01:13/02:10:01:14/02:10:01:15/02:10:01:16/02:10:01:17/02:10:01:18/02:10:01:19/02:10:03/02:10:04/02:10:05/02:10:07/02:10:08/02:168/02:169N/02:174/02:176/02:211Q;02:10:01G
DRB3*;02:171/02:173:01/02:173:02;03:22:01G

These groups are now named for their first alleles (as they should be): C*02:02:37G and DRB3*02:171:01G.

This also has the effect of creating a P-group named DRB3*02:171P and adding the appropriate alleles to C*02:02P.

This, in turn, has the effect of removing the C*02:02/C*02:10 from the "dup_lgx" table which means lgx redux on C*02:02 returns C*02:02 now (not C*02:02/C*02:10).

Likewise, lgx redux on C*02:10 returns C*02:02 now (not C*02:02/C*02:10).

Which means py-ard will correctly reduce these alleles without the need for a post-pyard-fix.
