`PICARD_COLLECTHSMETRICS` process is skipped due to empty input channel

[bounlu]

Description of the bug

When the reference genome is not gzipped (i.e. genome.fa), PICARD_COLLECTHSMETRICS process is skipped due to the empty input channel here. As a result, only *.intervallist file is generated inside the enrichment_metrics folder, but the metrics files for individual samples are missing. When ch_gzi is removed here, it works.
