Update terminology: `strain` to `sample`
Issue: https://github.com/genenetwork/gn-gemtext-threads/blob/main/topics/gn1-migration-to-gn2/clustering.gmi * Update the terminology used: use `sample` in place of `strain` according to Zachary's direction at https://github.com/genenetwork/genenetwork3/pull/37#issuecomment-926043306

- Traits can contain a varied number of strains, some of which do not exist in

certain genotypes. In order to compute QTLs, GEMMAs, etc, we need to ensure

This function loads a list of samples from the genotype files for use in
