Moving to Triage and incorporating pivotal story.

tom_suryveys/tom_nonlocalizedevents integration

As a TOMToolkit Developer, I would like to support observations over sky "regions" (or "fields"). This functionality enables Surveys, Non-localizedevents, and observations larger than the instrument "footprint" or FOV. This functinality is scattered in Griffin's tom_surveys module and tom_nonlocalizedevents, and this is a large refactoring of pieces into tom_surveys upon which tom_nonlocalzedevents will depend.

I believe we discussed renaming tom_surveys to a more general tom_skyregions or something to capture the more general use case than surveys.

I don't remember if we reached a conclusion.

@griffin-h We plan to incorporate this into a TOMtoolkit version 3.0
