It should be possible to append samples to an existing .tome file. This would allow us to incrementally update a single file instead of recompiling the entire thing from scratch.
This is probably straightforward for adding columns as vectors, but may be more complicated for adding samples. Maybe I can expand and add values to sample-indexed sparse matrices. gene-indexed matrices will have to be rebuilt.
