Description

Since we added rules for scoring the resistance to HIV and HCV drugs, we could use the mutation positions to choose key positions when giving a coverage score. Presumably, we should continue to allow key positions as part of the project definitions for regions that don't have resistance rules.

Somewhat related to the tool for editing project definitions described in #425.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing resistance-rule scoring and project-definition handling, then read the related project-definition editor discussion in #425. The intended result is for mutation positions from resistance rules to determine key positions for coverage scoring while preserving explicitly configured key positions where no rules exist.
