add potential host galaxies to Aladin viewer #70

This adds a pink circle around each potential host galaxy in the Aladin viewer, with a numerical label corresponding to the galaxy's position in the host galaxy table. Resolves #34.

It seems like Aladin is not sensitive to sources at m ~>19th mag (most SDSS photo-z galaxies). Quickly looked in documentation and couldn't find any text on limiting mag for Aladin.

Aladin is just the viewer. You can choose the imagery that it shows in the layers menu, including SDSS9 and PanSTARRS DR1. Those should be deeper than the default DSS, but they don't cover the whole sky.
