This function assembles a data frame of all SNPs involved in the DAEQTL
mapping. Besides the genomic position for each SNP, it annotates each SNP as
a DAE SNP or a DAEQTL candidate SNP: columns is_dae_snp
and
is_candidate_snp
.
The returned data frame is useful as an intermediate data structure of the
workflow, namely when looking for candidate neighbouring SNPs. Check the
vignette('snp-pairs')
to understand when to use this function.
