feature_dataset_presence_matrix should include genes with 0 counts

[ebezzi]

Describe the bug

The current feature_dataset_presence_matrix only reports genes that have a total expression count > 0. Instead, it should report all genes that were listed in the original dataset.

To Reproduce

For dataset 0895c838-e550-48a3-a777-dbcd35d30272, 13696 genes are nnz

Expected behavior

For dataset 0895c838-e550-48a3-a777-dbcd35d30272, 33363 should be nnz

How big of a bug is this? Does it need to be fixed in the LTS?

[ebezzi]

Don't think it's worth an errata.

I'm not sure if this is the correct issue that we were discussing @ivirshup , but I wonder if both information should be present

• nnz: genes with expression > 0
• : genes that were part of the original submision (e.g. the gene universe for that dataset).

on the latter, is there a check during submission, that checks that all genes submitted have at least one count in any of the cells in the dataset? just wondering
