Don't we have darks and biases now? If so, should we turn these on to avoid accidentally running without those corrections?

When observing at the Naval Observatory, the camera is not talking to the telescope and so the FITS headers aren't populated. Instead, additional FITS files are being generated for the shutter with the headers in them. Unfortunately, there's not a clear one-to-one correspondence between these two sources. In order to get some useful header keywords for the image data, we suck the useful header keywords into a sqlite database. This can be used to experiment with joining the two sets of files and, with a join strategy, apply the shutter header values to the camera during ingest and read. The choice of name comes from being a bit annoyed at the hoops I was having to jump through, and not wanting to use the word "ingest" because of the potential for confusion with ingestImages and ingestCalibs. So it ended up being "suckMetadata.py" because it sucks.
Ingesting USNO data requires a hack because the image data and the useful FITS headers are separated.
These config overrides allowed me to process an observation made at USNO. We use a smallish-scale background model to avoid detections in the wings of stars. We increase the detection threshold (5-->20 sigma) because there's more noise in the images than we are accounting for. We use astrometry.net for the astrometric solution.
These may be hot pixels, but we don't yet have reliable darks.
