bmccandless 98c2a1359b Specialize diffexp for tiledb (#1384)
* Specialize diffexp for tiledb

This patch adds a new diffexp algorithm which is tuned for tiledb.
This algorithm was written by Bruce and is adapted here to plug into the
current framework.  The anndata_adaptor still calls the original
algotithm (which was move from diffexp.py to diffexp_generic.py).
The cxg_adaptor now calls the new diffexp_tiledb version.  Some
code is shared between the two.

This is part 1 of the diffexp for tiledb.  Further tuning and
global throttles are still needed.

A script to run and time diffexp with various options is also
added: test/run_diffexp.py.

Return differential expression statistics for top N variables.
Algorithm:
- compute log fold change (log2(meanA/meanB))
- compute Welch's t-test statistic and pvalue (w/ Bonferroni correction)
- return top N abs(logfoldchange) where lfc > diffexp_lfc_cutoff
If there are not N which meet criteria, augment by removing the logfoldchange
threshold requirement.
Notes on alogrithm:
- Welch's ttest provides basic statistics test.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welch%27s_t-test
- p-values adjusted with Bonferroni correction.
