Extracts the sequence context up and downstream of a nucleotide position

1	getSequenceContext(position, chr, offsetL = 10, offsetR = 50)

`position`	Start position of the considered INDEL
`chr`	Chromosome of the considered INDEL
`offsetL`	Number of nucleotides downstream of `position`
`offsetR`	Number of nucleotides upstream of `position`

Returns a character string containing the defined seqeunce context
