Added functionality for querying dustmaps and SDSS

[DouglasBoubert]

Requires the dustmaps python package (obtainable via 'pip install dustmaps').

This seems to work fine, however I get a bunch of warnings out of the Gaia task that look like this:

I have everything updated to the latest releases on pip. Just thought I'd mention in case the warnings indicate we're doing something we should be.

I got those messages too, but didn't have a chance to investigate further. I believe it is probably an error in astroquery.gaia. Could you ask on their slack?

[guillochon]

None of the people on their slack actually had developed that module, so I'm not sure that they'd know.

P.S. the output of this PR is now visible on the page, although I didn't utilize some of the new columns yet.

Hmm... I'll email the author of that module!
