Defines functions liftover_grlist

Documented in liftover_grlist

#' Liftover peak list
#' 
#' Perform genome build liftover to one or more
#'  \link[GenomicRanges]{GRanges} objects at once.
#' @param grlist A named list of \link[GenomicRanges]{GRanges} objects,
#'  or simply a single unlisted \link[GenomicRanges]{GRanges} object.
#'  Can perform liftover within species or across species.
#' @param input_build The genome build of \code{grlist}.
#' @param output_build Desired genome build for
#'  \code{grlist} to be lifted over to.
#' @param as_grangeslist Return as a \link[GenomicRanges]{GRangesList}. 
#' @param merge_all Merge all \link[GenomicRanges]{GRanges} into a single
#'  \link[GenomicRanges]{GRanges} object.
#' @param style Chromosome style,
#'  set by \link[GenomeInfoDb]{seqlevelsStyle}.
#'  \itemize{
#'  \item{"UCSC" : }{Uses the chromosome style "chr1".}
#'  \item{"NCBI" : }{Uses the chromosome style "1"}
#'  }
#' @param verbose Print messages.
#' @inheritParams remove_nonstandard_chrom
#' 
#' @returns Named list of lifted \link[GenomicRanges]{GRanges} objects.
