Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing how fetchngs currently accepts SRA, ENA, GEO, or other accession types, then identify the metadata and raw FASTQ fetch paths; done means CRR, CRX, CRS, and CRA accessions such as CRR1164885 are supported for both data and metadata.
