feature density/histogram should not be bigger than visible display

#58

When you zoom out far enough, dense feature tracks become histograms, but often those histograms go out of bounds of the viewable area, which is not very useful. JBrowse should be able to figure out the viewable area height and automatically cap track height at X % of that. So, the tracks can at least never be taller than the view, but ideally no taller than 25 % or something of the view. However, the user user should be able to turn this off and on from the client. Ideally, the track config panel I requested in #57 should contain an option to "set max % of viewable area height" that a track can occupy, or turn off the cap completely.

    In release 1.1, the client has global knowledge about the range of values in the histograms, and uses that information to set the scale of the histogram so that it doesn't become taller than the display. The histograms are currently 100 pixels high.

    Having a y-axis scale indicator, and a UI for manipulating the y-axis scale, are already entered as separate tickets, so I'm going to go ahead and close this one.
