Sub-solar fields should be NULL for occultations #1354

Closed rfrenchseti closed 2 months ago

Currently we treat sub-solar (elevation, opening angle) to mean sub-photon-source for occultations. However, this is confusing to people who actually expect it to mean sub-SOLAR in all cases. The easiest fix is to set these fields to NULL for occultations, since we already have incidence angle to handle this constraint. The tooltips will need to be updated to remove comments about occultations, and the Profile Constraints tab will have to replace the solar fields with incidence.
