Gaia event classifier is overzealous #163

The Gaia event classifier marks Gaia events which do not meet other criteria as an unclassified poor fit. Genuine microlensing events have to be re-classified manually because of that.

I've stopped the gaia_classifier from overriding 'Microlensing binary' classifications, since these are assigned manually. This was happening in the case of Gaia24acn because the PSPL model parameters are obviously not representative of the true model, and the PSPL model criteria was producing a false negative result in this case, and marking the event to a variable. This was deployed in v4.5.6.
