Resolves HLA-1417
This PR adds a validation check to adopted WCS solution taken from the astrometry database. The check makes sure that the CRVAL1 and CRVAL2 values (reference pixel coordinates in degrees) have a separation less than a certain threshold; otherwise a warning is issued.
Our current working warning separation threshold is 1 degrees, but this should be refined.
