Run the QTLReaper command to compute the QTLs.
PARAMETERS:
genotype_filename: The complete path to a genotype file to use in the QTL
computation.
traits_filename: A path to a file previously generated with the
`generate_traits_file` function in this module, to be used in the QTL
computation.
other_options: Other options to pass to the `qtlreaper` command to modify
the QTL computations.
separate_nperm_output: A flag indicating whether or not to provide a
separate output for the permutations computation. The default is False,
which means by default, no separate output file is created.
output_dir: A path to the directory where the outputs are put
RETURNS:
The function returns a tuple of the main output file, and the output file
for the permutation computations. If the `separate_nperm_output` is `False`,
the second value in the tuple returned is `None`.
RAISES:
The function will raise a `subprocess.CalledProcessError` exception in case
of any errors running the `qtlreaper` command.
