This PR updates desitarget.skybricks to support the skybricks/v3 format which now uses fits.fz files instead of .fits.gz, while still being backwards compatible with the v2 fits.gz files. See $DESI_ROOT/target/skybricks/v3 .
~1/1500 current sky catalog locations are rejected by skybricks/v3 (down from ~1/300 in v2), with the locations that they disagree upon having a small positive flux bias. That's curious but hardly our biggest problem right now. v3 is distinctly better than v2 but needs this code update to use them.
