Variants do not support ends

The variant type structure in main/vcf.js supports only a starting position without an ending position.

Resolved - encoded in ref and alt alleles

Reopening - variant specification should include an end.

@Georgehe4: can you let me know why you need the end coordinates? The variant track is currently tailored towards showing single nucleotide variants and the main/vcf.js reflects that as the end coordinate is not needed for that type of variants.

Happy to get this in, but just need more information about how/why it will be used before adding this support.
