      Description

      The current ImageDifferenceTask runs decorrelation of the difference image using the warped (but not PSF-matched) template. However, the decorrelation Task expects the template to have been convolved with the PSF-matching kernel, with the result that the variance plane is too low. Fixing this bug is simple, but it should be noted that this will change the variance plane and the number of diaSources detected on the difference image.

            (I note that per discussion on Slack at https://lsstc.slack.com/archives/C2JPMCF5X/p1649367089692649 that we appear not be using the variance plane for detection at all, so having the variance plane wrong won't actually adjust the number of detected DIAsources. This may also explain a) why we haven't seen much effect from the variance rescaling b) perhaps some of our "no detection" artifact class.)

            The variance plane is used for detection of diaSources in image differencing, but we also rescale the variance plane which mostly fixes this bug.
