[BioC] Patch for sortBam functionality in Rsamtools

[Thomas Unterthiner]

Hi there!
Attached to this mail you'll find a patch that adds a "sortBam" function 
to Rsamtools, which provides the functionality  of to the "samtools 
sort" tool.

The patch was made using R-devel version 2.12.0 (2010-07-21 r52595) 
against the Bioconductor SVN trunk rev.   48321 (checked out 
2010-07-22). I'd appreciate it if the patch could be integrated into the 
next Rsamtools release (provided it meets the necessary quality 
criteria, that is ;) ). Also, any criticism of any kind is welcome as 
well. :)

Cheers

Thomas
