Drizzlepac v3.6.1

What's Changed

• Fixed an incompatiblity in the minmed code for cosmic ray rejection
  with the numpy version >=1.25by @mcara in #1573
• Fixed projection cell identification in overlapping regions by @s-goldman in #1572
• Force the version of matplotlib to be <= 3.6.3 as the newer versions of
  the library cause problems with the calcloud preview generation by @mdlpstsci in #1571

Drizzlepac v3.6.1 release candidate 1

High-Level Summary

This build of Drizzlepac is strictly a bug-fix release in particular to address a conflict between the CalCloud preview generation and Matplotlib v3.7.1. A rollback to Matplotlib <= v3.6.3 was necessary to address the problem.

What's Changed

• Fix an incompatibility with NumPy v1.25 in minmed.py module @mcara #1573
• Fix projection cell identification in overlapping regions @s-goldman #1572
• Ensure version of Matplotlib <= 3.6.3 for now by @mdlpstsci in #1571

Drizzlepac v3.5.1

High-Level Summary

• Put the verify_guiding() function into use in order to ignore exposures where the guide star lock was lost and the stars appear trailed.
• Improved the feedback to the user when access to the catalog service fails so it is more apparent what has happened.
• Handle the situation when an image has been cleaned of cosmic rays and there are no sources left to measure.
• When the active WCS solution is 'a priori' are residual FITS keywords which may be present due to a previous 'a posteriori' solution are deleted to alleviate confusion.
• Handle the situation of not be able to find a FWHM due to a fitting problem.
• Clean up the CRDER FITS keywords to have the correct values and units, and add a descriptive comment.
• Handle empty input images gracefully.
• Make properly use of the PhotUtils catalog WCS.
• Added user-oriented documentation for reading the output Point and Segmentation source catalogs programmatically with Astropy or Pandas.
• Modified the compute_2d_background() function to accommodate API changes in PhotUtils while keeping the source code backwards compatible.
• Provide support for Numpy 1.26 "str" deprecation and ensure backwards compatibility.
