Title: Added ability to color boxplots, as well as major refactoring.

make_distance_boxplots.py now has the option to color the "individual within" boxplots by another field in the mapping file (provided that a one-to-one mapping exists so that coloring isn't ambiguous).

I also did a large refactoring of the code in the make_distance_boxplots.py script as this had built up over time and needed to be pushed into a new library module (qiime/make_distance_boxplots.py) so that it could be unit-tested.

The coloring changes required that I add PyCogent's distribution_plots.py into pycogent_backports.

This resolves issue #475.
