Pipeline will not handle .fits.gz files #58

It is my understanding that this limitation originated from IRAF, but if the IRAF dependency is eliminated in the 2016 release (e.g. PR #56), then we should be able to support use of fits.gz files.

I'm taking a look at supporting .fits.gz files from KOA based on recent discussion in #82 . The basic input/output using astropy.io.fits handles gzipped files without an issue, but we have lots of filename checking and filename matching which assumes that the filename ends in ".fits". This will have to be worked through case by case. I've started a branch to try to work though this, but it may be a while until I get it all sorted out.
