      Description

      Implement RFC-353 by replacing all use of Coord and its subclasses with SpherePoint.

      Things to keep in mind:

      • afw will no longer support coordinate conversions. We do not rely on this now (except for a very small number of cases of use of FK5 J2000 instead if ICRS that is likely a mistake).
      • SpherePoint and Coord have slightly different APIs (for instance SpherePoint is immutable) so some usage will need to change.
      • Coord has some methods that SpherePoint does not. These may have to be added to SpherePoint or implemented as free functions.

      This would also be a good time to eliminate the SpherePoint(double raDecRad[2]) constructor. This was added to support Transform but turned out to be unnecessary.

            DM-10765 has made the circular import problem for SkyWcs worse. I giving up on having SkyWcs imported into lsst.afw.geom by default; until this ticket is implemented users will have to import SkyWcs and the other symbols defined in skyWcs using something like from lsst.afw.geom.skyWcs import SkyWcs. As part of implementing this ticket, look for such imports and simplify them, and update Python documentation that refers to lsst.afw.geom.skyWcs.SkyWcs.

            The changes are described in this community posting: https://community.lsst.org/t/lsst-afw-coord-coord-classes-are-going-away/2769

            Most of the packages I had to change have trivial, obvious changes. afw, naturally, needed a lot of changes. Also obs_lsstSim has one non-obvious change: the camera mapper has special logic in std_raw to handle old raw images which used coordinate conversion capabilities of the Coord classes that are gone. I reworked the code (greatly simplifying it). The results are slightly, but not significantly, different.

            Bob Armstrong heroically reviewed all the packages except pipe_analysis. Since that is not a DM package I am leaving it unmerged for now and merging the rest.

            @yusra I will leave it to folks at Princeton to review pipe_analysis when they have time. I am happy to respond to reviewer comments. The changes for this ticket are small, but I also fixed all the pep8 violations, which was a big change (and a separate commit).
