To-Fix: GPS Antenna Offsets 📡📡 📡  #6

Description

@sammmlow

⚠️⚠️⚠️ Caution: Do not apply GPS antenna offsets as of v1.3 (pre-release). ⚠️⚠️⚠️

GPS antenna offsets should be done in the spacecraft body frame. However, currently as LEOGPS has no feature to read in spacecraft attitude coordinates, it will not be able to tell the orientation of the spacecraft and thus applying GPS antenna offsets using XYZ coordinates in the orbit frame is erroneous. For now, this has been (conveniently) cast to future work, and users are advised not to set any non-zero offsets. The input box in the GUI has also been closed. Thus, all coordinates computed in LEOGPS of the spacecraft(s) are not of the spacecraft center of mass, but of the GPS antenna phase center.
