add in tiling offset as a default survey mode with WINTER camera #64

the goal is to do two tiles, with a large offset, and multiple dithers per offset:

tiling offset: We decided half the chip, so 1000 arcsec in Dec and 500 arcsec in RA should be good for the big ones. 10 arcsec for small ones should be fine.

texp = (visitExpTime/2) / N? where N is now dithers per offset and we have two offsets

this was implemented, and is still an option in the code/config setup, but is no longer used after a brief set of tests.
