Description

Metaphlan version in both conda and singularity is currently 4.1.1. To update to a new version (4.2.*), we will need to update the reference database. An updated database has been added by nf-core/test-datasets#2031.

This will also be required to adding humann v4 (see #11192 and #11201 for discussion)

Research direction

Start with the existing MetaPhlAn module entries for the conda and Singularity variants, then review the updated reference database in nf-core/test-datasets#2031. Update the module to the 4.2.* release and database, and verify the related HUMAnN v4 discussion in issues #11192 and #11201 is addressed.
