Recently, we added a new service to find alerts falling inside LIGO/Virgo probability sky maps (https://github.com/astrolabsoftware/fink-science-portal/pull/208). We found that most alerts were already catalogued in MPC as SSO. Hence, it would be good to remove them prior querying the main table (recall, we first query the pixel index table, and then the main table). Concretely this would mean:
[ ] add a new column to the pixel* index tables with alert classification (beware of recomputing roid)
[ ] reconstruct the index tables (only useful for past events)
