Implement this option from bwa mem:

       -D FLOAT      drop chains shorter than FLOAT fraction of the longest overlapping chain [0.50]

This improves performance by removing clusters (chains of MEMs) which are unlikely to yield useful results.

When a chain/cluster is less than this fraction of the longest overlapping
cluster, drop it. Tends to keep reads when we have a fair chance of finding a
better alternative, and not try to when it's unlikely.
