\description{Create a GenoSet object}
\details{This function is the preferred method for creating a new GenoSet object. Users are
generally discouraged from calling "new" directly. Any "..." arguments will
become part of the assayData slot of the resulting object. "..." can be matrices
or DataFrame objects (from IRanges). This function passes
control to the "initGenoSet" method which performs argument checking including
dimname matching among relevant slots and sets everything to genome order. Genome
order can be disrupted by "[" or "[[" calls and will be checked by methods that
require it.}
