Congruify nodes of a tree topology to nodes from a source chronogram, and find the mrca nodes

congruify_and_mrca congruifies a target tree against a single source chronogram, and gets nodes of target tree that correspond to the most recent common ancestor (mrca) of taxon pairs from the congruified calibrations. It uses phytools::findMRCA() to get mrca nodes.
