MakeTreeBinary() resolves, at random, all polytomies in a tree or set of
trees, such that all trees compatible with the input topology are drawn
with equal probability.
MakeTreeBinary(tree)A tree of class phylo.
MakeTreeBinary() returns a rooted binary tree of class phylo,
corresponding to tree uniformly selected from all those compatible with
the input tree topologies.
Since ape v5.5, this functionality is available through
ape::multi2di(); previous versions of "ape" did not return topologies
in equal frequencies.
