File mainly used to write ALL changes that break backwards compatibility.

- For a DBIC RegionCollection all the "*overlap*" methods were deprecated.
However for the DoubleHashArray RegionCollection this was not the case and
there were discrepancies of methods actually calling overlap when contain
was requested. These inconsistencies have now been fixed and all the
"*overlap*" methods have been marked as deprecated.
- Skip genes whose transcripts do not overlap. In a GTF file there are cases
in which the transcripts of a gene do not overlap. Previously, a separate
gene entry for each overlapping set of its transcripts was created. We no
longer allow this. It seems that these genes are poorly annotated and
therefore are now skipped entirely.

- Change the interface of GenOO::Data::File::SAM::Record
The SAM parser had to be optimized and for this the interface of SAM::Record had to be altered.
Specifically the initiation arguments for the SAM::Record objects have changed from a HashRef
with all attributes to a single attibute namely "fields" which is an ArrayRef.
