More options for absolute photometric calibrations #30

Supernova can benefit from absolute photometric calibration. The Gaia calibration implemented now could benefit from verification with other surveys, in a band matching exactly that of the observations.

Things to do:

  1. [x] Hard code some common bands, take e.g. from Pan-STARRS
  2. [x] Hand the Gaia IDs, coordinates and measured fluxes of the calibration stars to the user so they can calibrate themselves -- nah not easier than getting them from the database
