This is a bit of a hack to enable simulations of offset slits in MICADO. The offset is in the dispersion direction and observations in the nominal and offset slits are meant to fill in missing data due to the gaps in the detector array. A proper implementation would use separate trace files computed for both slit positions. Here, offsets are determined from the
CRVALiDin the FOV header and added to the x and y arrays from which the transformations are computed. TheCRVALiDvalues are zero for nominal slits and non-zero for shifted slits. This works for MICADO, but it needs to be tested that it doesn't break METIS and other spectrographs.Related to AstarVienna/irdb#308
