TopologyOnly

<code>TopologyOnly()</code> removes all information from trees except for their
topologies and leaf labels. This allows other functions to process
trees more rapidly, as they do not need to process unneeded metadata.

Efficient implementations of functions for the creation,
modification and analysis of phylogenetic trees.
Applications include:
generation of trees with specified shapes;
tree rearrangement;
analysis of tree shape;
rooting of trees and extraction of subtrees;
calculation and depiction of split support;
plotting the position of rogue taxa (Klopfstein & Spasojevic 2019)
<doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0212942>;
calculation of ancestor-descendant relationships,
of 'stemwardness' (Asher & Smith, 2022) <doi:10.1093/sysbio/syab072>,
and of tree balance (Mir et al. 2013, Lemant et al. 2022)
<doi:10.1016/j.mbs.2012.10.005>, <doi:10.1093/sysbio/syac027>;
artificial extinction (Asher & Smith, 2022) <doi:10.1093/sysbio/syab072>;
import and export of trees from Newick, Nexus (Maddison et al. 1997)
<doi:10.1093/sysbio/46.4.590>,
and TNT <https://www.lillo.org.ar/phylogeny/tnt/> formats;
and analysis of splits and cladistic information.
