Setter Method for the lociWidth slot in a parameterOptions object

1	lociWidth(object)<-value

`object`	`object` is `parameterOptions` object
`value`	`value` is the numeric value to be assigned to the lociWidth slot. Default set at 1.

When using the processingChIP function, the provided ChIP scores will be split into bins of a given size. lociWidth determines the Size of that bin. Default is set at 20 000 bp. This mean that the ChIP profiles provided will be split into bins of 20 000 bp over the entire profile provided if no loci of interest is provided.

Returns the value assigned to the lociWidth slot in a parameterOptions object.
