bgen_reader.allele_expectation allocates memory based on unindexed genotype #40

Description

@jordanero

bgen_reader.allele_expectation allocates memory based on the unindexed genotype. This causes problems when indexing a large bgen (for example UKBioBank).

The following code attempts to allocate a 4.45TiB array when computing the expectation for a single variant and sample

from bgen_reader import open_bgen
bgen = open_bgen('ukb_imp_chr22_v3.bgen', samples_filepath = 'ukb1404_imp_chr1_v2_s487406.sample', verbose = True)
bgen.allele_expectation(index = c(1,1))
