Bug #3317: Parsing Stockholm files fails with some sequence IDs

I ended up with a stockholm file where some sequence IDs end with "/MN1-00", e.g.

363253|refseq_protein.50.proto_past_mitoc_micro_vira|gi|94986659|ref|YP_594592.1|awsonia_intraceuaris_PHE/MN1-00

This can't be parsed by the BioPython AlignIO module - it fails attempting to convert "MN1" to an integer.

I wrote a quick patch, which just returns the default value if the type conversion fails:
