 Description   

The sunss column in the GFM carries all the info we need in a 3 character text field. We need to pick that apart for actual use.

Question: do we want to always return imaging/diffuse and the fiber id as a pair? For the imaging/diffuse part, do we want "imaging"/"diffuse" strings or, say, an isImaging boolean?

I think we never want a 1..254 sunss fiber id.

I don't care about "imaging"/"diffuse" v. isImaging as this gets transferred to the pfsConfig file; it's just a matter of how we write the pfsDesign file.

I think we do want the 1..254 SuNSS fiberId as it tells me how to make images of the sky with SuNSS

I should have stated that this is a bug fix as well as improvements. The sunss column is U3 ("i1", "d2", "emp") and needs to be parsed out before anything will work.
