a typo about RA valid range #41

lightcurve.py Line 196 and 449 says "The valid range of RA is [0,180]", which might be a typo. This typo may result from ZTF documentation on IRSA website (https://irsa.ipac.caltech.edu/docs/program_interface/ztf_lightcurve_api.html). The second table of the documentation mentions, "In accordance with the standard, the valid range of RA is [0,180] and of DEC is [-90,90]." The example of the documentation, however, uses "CIRCLE=-164.7 -5.8 0.1", implying that "[0,180]" is very likely a typo.
