run align script after runwsclean (run_selfcal_pipeline) #241

Hi, I think that it is worth to add a step in run_selfcal_pipeline.py where align-extrationimage-fluxes.py is run after runwsclean.py. Do you (@twshimwell) think that this is doable? The alignment is different for DR2 and non-DR2 targets, ideally the scripts should handle both cases... Then, a log file in the .tar.gz or a column "correction factor" could be added to the reprocessing database so people already know what is the correction factor for their images once the extracted datasets are distributed..

Yeh we should try to make it automatically done indeed. Would require the selfcal pipeline script to take a reference catalogue (and maybe any scaling factor that should be applied to it) as input I guess.
