map and pmap are defunct. Use mapCoords
and pmapCoords instead. The map generic converts a set of ranges to the equivalent
ranges on another sequence, through some sort of alignment between
sequences, and outputs a GRangesMapping object.
There are two components of that object: the transformed granges,
and the hits, a Hits object of the same length
that matches each input range to a destination sequence (useful when
the alignment is one/many to many). The pmap function is
simpler: it treats the two inputs as parallel vectors, maps each input
range via the corresponding alignment, and returns the mapped
ranges. There is one result per input element, instead of the
many-to-many result from map.
