Recently some EMU datasets were put through flint and it became clear that copying the entire MS in preparation for self-calibration was a little nasty to the disk.
In this pull request I introduce a CLI option --rename-ms that will simply rename the MS and modify column names appropriately. Although we lose the data between rounds, there is still the INSTRUMENT_DATA column that can be rotated back into the sky-frame, and the calibration tables that can then be applied.
