parkinson's mouse tutorial should document fragment-insertion filter-features step after fragment-insertion sepp #440

Description

@gregcaporaso

Improvement Description
qiime fragment-insertion sepp is applied in the Parkinson's mouse tutorial, but isn't followed with a qiime fragment-insertion filter-features step to remove ASVs that weren't inserted into the tree from the feature table. We should document qiime fragment-insertion filter-features at this point in the tutorial since it is often necessary after running qiime fragment-insertion sepp. This content could be derived from the tutorial provided here.

Current Behavior
It seems that all of the ASVs in this tutorial are successfully inserted into the tree, so there are no failures in downstream steps.

Proposed Behavior
We should document that this step is often necessary to ensure that all of the features in the feature table are also present in the tree. We can note that the filter isn't necessary in this tutorial, but that it often will be. This can happen in a box (probably where we explain how to determine if it's necessary), or just include the filtering command even though it doesn't change anything here (that might be safer in case a change in an upstream step such as denoising results in one or more ASVs not being placed in this process in the future, in which case the build of this tutorial would fail).
