In StructuralVariantAnnotation: Variant annotations for structural variants

#' StructuralVariantAnnotation: a package for SV annotation
#'
#' StructuralVariantAnnotation contains useful helper functions for reading
#' and interpreting structural variants calls. The packages contains functions
#' for parsing VCFs from a number of popular caller as well as functions for
#' dealing with breakpoints involving two separate genomic loci. The package
#' takes a `GRanges` based breakend-centric approach.
#'
#'    * Parse VCF objects with the `breakpointRanges()` and `breakendRanges()`functions.
#'    * Find breakpoint overlaps with the `findBreakpointOverlaps()`
#'   and `countBreakpointOverlaps()` functions.
#'    * Generate BEDPE files for circos plot with `breakpointgr2pairs()` function.
#'    * ...
