[BioC] GenomicAlignments and QNAME collision

Valerie,

just a little note. In case the character in qnameSuffixEnd does not 
exist in QNAME (i.e. you specify the wrong character...) scanBam (I 
tested that) hangs forever.

I guess there should be a test on the very first read: if the character 
is not in the string then report error...
