Forergound spectra have a correlation structure in ell space that is distinct from the CMB. This means that the XFaster-computed binned transfer function may differ between these two types of signal components.
This PR introduces
foreground_typeandforeground_transfer_typeoptions that behave analogously tosignal_typeandsignal_transfer_type, so that the foreground transfer function is computed from a separate ensemble of sims. In principle, this should improve the accuracy of the bandpower calculation with a harmonic-domain foreground component.However, there seems to be something fundamentally broken in the foreground code, such that the final covariance contains negative eigenvalues. This failure may not be specific to this branch.
