      Description

      ISR is leaving the `CCDGAIN` and `CCDNOISE` header keywords in LSSTCam, which are not the actual gain used.  When the variance is constructed, we should populate keywords with the actual gain and read noise values used.

          I would prefer that if we write new headers we use HIERARCH LSST CCDGAIN or something similar. We have caused real confusion in the past by writing headers that match one specific instrument but not another and someone reading a header can't really be sure whether it was a propagated header or something added by the pipeline.

          I'd be in favor of not touching the existing headers at all – you don't want to start having to know all possible variants for GAIN information and it would be better to follow RFC-576 – we pass everything to the output and augment headers with items that are explicitly processing headers.
