Filtering an orf.table with ORF information to keep only the LORFs.
Usage
lorfs(orf.tbl)
Value
A tibble with a subset of the rows of the argument orf.tbl.
After this filtering the Type variable in orf.tbl is changed to "LORF". If you want to
retrieve the LORF sequences, use gff2fasta.
Arguments
orf.tbl
A tibble with the nine columns of the GFF-format (see findOrfs).

Details
For every stop-codon there are usually multiple possible start-codons in the same reading
frame (nested ORFs). The LORF (Longest ORF) is defined as the longest of these nested ORFs,
i.e. the ORF starting at the most upstream start-codon matching the stop-codon.
