Defines functions n_zones_PCA

Documented in n_zones_PCA

## The function performs the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of the number of
## dense zones obtained by varying the threshold on accumulation values obtained
## with the three methods of accumulation (TF, region, base).
## Input:
##    lists with the results of the dense_zones function using the TF,
##    region and base accumulation method (in this order) and varying the
##    thresholds on the considered accumulation values.
##    chr: optional argument, needed if the input is found with chr = "all";
##    a string or a vector containing strings with the name of the chromosome
##    (e.g., "chr1")
## Output: A list with a summary containing the standard deviation on each
## principal component, the proportion of variance explained by each principal
## component, the cumulative proportion of variance described by each principal
## component, and the loadings of each principal component. In addition, a plot
## with the variances of the principal components; a plot with the cumulate
## variances of the principal components; three plots with the loadings of the
## three principal components; a plot with the vector obtained, for each
## threshold value, as linear combination of the number of dense zones
## (after scaling) for each accumulation type, using as linear combination
## coefficients the loadings of the first principal component for the three
## accumulation types.
