Re: [Biopython] Adding method to remove gaps in MultipleSeqAlignment

See also the deprecation of the Seq object's ungap method,
https://github.com/biopython/biopython/pull/3480

And the decision not to add an ungap method to the SeqRecord,
https://github.com/biopython/biopython/issues/1017

However, dropping columns in a MSA is rather different.

Over to Michiel to comment.
