Obviously wrong skyplot #286

The two boundaries should be symmetric, but they are not. Why?? I have never seen this behavior until this usage on the evening of 15 March 2023.

Bash history shows that I invoked the program a few different ways, for example with

skyplot --tle ~/Desktop/tles/ISS.tle

but also with lat, lon, elevation and mount pole altitutde and azimuth. I think it was probably using the stored alignment model in alignment_2023-03-16T033049/.

Here's the TLE file that was used: ISS_tle.zip

I suspect this could be related to #278.
