Create a DNAMutation class to mutate DNA sequences

[Paucey]

Hi, first time contributor to this project and wanted to help. I took a look at issue #457 and came up with this.

Introduces a DNAMutation class which handles generating mutated DNA sequences. Specifically:

Mutate a DNA sequence by randomly changing a specified number of bases.
Generate 10 mutated sequences and print them to the console.

generateMutatedSequences(): Given a DNA sequence generates 10 mutated sequences, each with a specified number of mutations, and prints them to the console.

mutate(): Applies mutations by randomly selecting positions in the given DNA sequence and changing the base at that position.

getDifferentBase(): Ensures the mutation results in a base different from the given original base.

Not sure if this was specifically what you were looking for (and it isn't integrated any further than just being the abstract methods) but again, wanted to contribute. Let me know if you would like anything tweaked.

Currently mutate() simply replaces one base in a sequence with another base, but it could be refined to offer more specific kinds of mutations.
