Document the fact that we are using the E field in uvbeam in a nontstandard way #23

Description

@dannyjacobs

We are measuring the polarization of the beam using ENU locked coordinates. For v1.0 we are using pyuvbeam's electric field az_za which projects the E field onto theta, phi coordinate. We will be using Etheta to store E_North and Ephi is E_West. This is a dirty hack.

TODO:

  • Actually do this in the current version
  • Document the fact
  • Propose a PR to pyuvbeam to handle ENU geometry natively (not in V1.0)
