More Bands #7

Validating against this schema has made it hard to use WorldView and other multispectral sensors with their common_name. Please add more bands or allow numbers after swir, nir, lwir, eg: swir12 or swir8.

Might consider adding these too? https://earth.esa.int/eogateway/missions/worldview-3

I'm pretty sure we discussed this before, but I think there were good reasons for not making this more open. Can you remember, @matthewhanson ?

The criteria for adding new common names is that the approximate location and size appears in multiple instruments. This is clearly the case for all the standard colors, Near IR and the 2 main SWIR atmospheric windows. Narrow bands tend to be too specific and unique.
