uvfits reader assumes presence of non-standard uvfits keywords #70

Description

@bhazelton

The pyFHD uvfits reader assumes that obsra or ra and obsdec or dec are present in the uvfits header. These are completely nonstandard. They often exist in MWA data, but not always. Instead the RA/Dec should be extracted from the appropriate axis info (the RA axis is either axis 5 or 6 depending on whether there's a spectral window axis; the Dec axis is either 6 or 7). For an example of how to do this properly, see pyuvdata's uvfits reader.
