biology/ucsc-userapps: Add "kent" command in ${PREFIX}/bin

Standard kent userapps commands are installed under ${PREFIX}/userapps
because of multiple conflicts.  The kent command turns the standard
commands into subcommands, so no special PATH is needed.

    /usr/local/ucsc-userapps/bin/bigWigToBedGraph [args]

can be run as

    kent bigWigToBedGraph [args]

+/***************************************************************************
+ *  Description:
+ *      Wrapper to turn ucsc kent commands into subcommands.  The kent suite
+ *      contains executables that conflict with multiple other software
+ *      packages and therefore cannot be safely installed directly under a
+ *      standard prefix.  This wrapper can be installed under the standard
+ *      PATH and used to to execute kent commands installed under a
+ *      private prefix, without altering PATH, activating a special
+ *      environment, opening a container, etc.  This sub-command paradigm
+ *      is already familiar to bioinformaticians thanks to other suites
+ *      like samtools, bedtools, etc.
+ *
+ *      Example:
+ *
+ *          kent bigWigToBedGraph args
+ *
+ *      instead of one of the following:
+ *
+ *          prefix/bin/bigWigToBedGraph args
+ *
+ *          env PATH=prefix/bin:$PATH bigWigToBedGraph args
+ *
+ *          conda activate kent
+ *          bigWigToBedGraph args
+ *
+ *  Arguments:
+ *      The full kent utils command you would use if it were in PATH.
+ *
+ *  Compile with UCSC_PREFIX set to the parent of the bin directory
+ *  containing the kent binaries.
+ *
+ *  History: 
+ *  Date        Name        Modification
