Add calculate_qc_metrics to `prepare (#697)

* Calculate QC metrics

* Add QC metrics to prepare section of readme

* Add pointer to scanpy qc metrics function

* Don't explicitly pass qc flag as arg

* Add explicit toggle for run-qc/skip-qc

* Move qc metrics calculation to separate step/function

cellxgene prepare dataset.h5ad --output=dataset-processed.h5ad
```
This will load the input data, perform PCA and nearest neighbor calculations, compute `umap` and `tsne` layouts and `louvain` cluster assignments, and save the results in a new file called `dataset-processed.h5ad` that can be loaded using `cellxgene launch`. Data can be loaded from several formats, including `.h5ad` `.loom` and a `10-Genomics-formatted` `mtx` directory. Several options are available, including running one of the preprocessing `recipes` included with `scanpy`, which include steps like cell filtering and gene selection. To learn more about the `recipes` please see the `scanpy` [documentation](https://scanpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/index.html#recipes).

Depending on the options chosen, `prepare` can take a long time to run (a few minutes for datasets with 10-100k cells, up to an hour or more for datasets with >100k cells). If you want `prepare` to run faster we recommend using the `sparse` option and only computing the layout for `umap`, using a call like this
