Fix different aspects of the documentation

Mainly:
    - Made all lines fewer than 80 columns.
    - Change strings in the documentation to reflect the actual
      filenames that these are processing (it seems that it was still
      pointing to .txt contingency tables)

Fixes #304
Add note about the interface change.
Adjusting formatting in split_libraries_fastq

Line lengths adjusted, indentation adjusted, use of "is" and "is not" when
doing comparisons with None. Changed a try-except to use dict.get function.

Modified test and function.

There is an untested function in this code that makes boxplots. The build failed because that function called the modified function from the previous commit.
