Changed.

Thanks Hou-san for helping me with these changes.
I also did some performance testing on HEAD to see how long REFRESH
SEQUENCES takes for a large number of sequences.
I ran these on a 2× Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 (22 cores each, 44 cores
total / 88 threads) 512 GB RAM. I didn't see much value in
differentiating between cases where half the sequences were different
or all the sequences were different as REFRESH SEQUENCES updates all
sequences after changing the state of all of them to INIT, it doesn't
matter if they drifted or not.

On HEAD:
time to sync 10000 sequences: 1.080s (1080ms)
time to sync 100000 sequences: 12.069s (12069ms)
time to sync 1000000 sequences: 139.414s (139414ms)

testing script attached (pass in the number of sequences as a run time
parameter).
