detail::count_records() makes incorrect assumptions about FASTQ files #3

Description

@ahstram

detail::count_records() counts the number of occurences of a line starting with "@", to get the number of FASTQ records.

This does not work well in the case where a FASTQ quality string begins with "@".

The proper way to count the records in a FASTQ file is to get the line count, then divide by 4.
