    enable pairwise sequence alignments with parasail · adb141f9

    It's faster than the pairwise sequence algorithms we have in
    OpenStructure. However, the main reason to check out another solution
    is the fact that OpenStructure may return suboptimal alignment
    results. This is a result of how the dynamic programming table is built.
    If for a certain cell in the dynamic programming table a match state and
    insertion state score equally, match is preferred. There is a chance
    that we would get a better score later on if we would stick with the
    insertion state (gap open penalties vs. gap extension penalties).
    Not sure if this will be fixed in the near future.
