Wrong images from Andor Zyla 5 #140

@carandraug We swapped the shape of the numpy array, width by height. That way we can now see rectangular images, before only square images by default were possible.

The Zyla 5.5 has a rectangular sensor (2560x2160) and the acquired images were wrong. Changing the ROI for a square fixed the issue and then swapping the dimensions when creating the image buffer on andorsdk3 fixed it for good.

I have checked now that this was written for a Zyla 4.2 which has a square sensor (2048x2048) so I'm guessing this has just been always wrong and not something that the Andor SDK is doing different now.

Closing as fixed.
