Removing redundant (unbranched) internal nodes

[Yan Wong]

Is there a DendroPy function to carry out the equivalent of remove_unbranched_internals in perl Bio::Phylo (http://perldoc.net/Bio/Phylo/Forest/Tree.pm#TREE%20MANIPULATION). I.e. strip intermediate nodes from a tree if they only have a single descendant?

[Jeet Sukumaran]

In DendroPy 3:

Tree.delete_outdegree_one_nodes()

In DendroPy 4:

Tree.suppress_unifurcations()

Great, thanks. Sorry to bother you but I couldn't find this in the docs.
