Request a container with capabilities for running plot-bamstats (a tool included in samtools)

[gitanoqevaporelmundoentero]

Current samtools docker images do not include working plot-bamstats (a samtools utility for generating plots from previously runs of samtools stats). It would be nice to have a docker image with capabilities for running plot-bamstats.

In order to be able to run plot-bamstats, installation of gnuplot is needed (which also requires perl installation).

Can we instead create a plot-bamstats container instead? gnuplot is large on its own https://quay.io/repository/biocontainers/gnuplot .. I would like to avoid blowing up our tiny samtools container by 100MB

Sorry, I seem to have missed this issue...
@bgruening Should this be done with a mulled containers, since both packages are in conda?

(I'm fine with having a dedicated container here if needed)
