Update to job_params.cfg

A new section for all quality checks was created. Generic quality control parameters in persistence and quality_lofar were moved to this new section.

Quality checks

The rms values of all fits images are checked to global minimum and maximum rms values.
The automatic rms based image quality control check was given its own independent sigma threshold.

[quality]
rms_rej_sigma = 3	     ; threshold for rejecting images using rms histogram

The restoring beam parameter checks, initially developed for LOFAR images, now applied to all fits images.
Negative RA values
Some imagers, e.g. WSClean, define the WCS in the fits files as -180<RA<180. This caused issues within the source association algorithms. A new simple fix has been applied so these images can be correctly processed.

Removal of MonetDB

MonetDB is no longer supported but was still present in code and documentation. All references to MonetDB have now been removed.

Fixing of errors

A number of outstanding errors have been fixed.
