Title   : new
Usage   : my $obj = Bio::Tools::Run::Phylo::Hyphy->new();
Function: Builds a new Bio::Tools::Run::Phylo::Hyphy object 
Returns : Bio::Tools::Run::Phylo::Hyphy
Args    : -alignment => the Bio::Align::AlignI object
          -save_tempfiles => boolean to save the generated tempfiles and
                             NOT cleanup after onesself (default FALSE)

prepare

 Title   : prepare
 Usage   : my $rundir = $hyphy->prepare($aln);
 Function: prepare the analysis using the default or updated parameters
           the alignment parameter must have been set

Returns : L<Bio::Align::AlignI> object
Args    : [optional] L<Bio::Align::AlignI>
Comment : We could potentially add support for running directly on a file
