Title: add script for collapsing replicate samples

**NOT READY FOR MERGE**

This needs a few things prior to merge:
- [ ] port and test collapse functions
- [ ] possibly generalize to replace ``summarize_otu_by_cat.py`` and take an ``axis`` parameter
- [ ] needs biom > 2.1, so dependent on a release

This may ultimately make more sense to be part of BIOM, so may end up closing this PR without merge, but submitting now in case others have feedback.
