Close #256
Faster implementation of hamming distance calculation added to HammingDistanceCalculator. Boolean parameter normalize added to HammingDistanceCalculator constructor. If normalize is set to true, the hamming distance values are divided by the sequence length. New metric normalized_hamming added, which uses the HammingDistanceCalculator with normalize set to true.
