I just linked this to ACP-134 to make this even more useful through the web UI.

  Allow dawn cal frames in unsafe weather. Multiple changes to API and logic in scripts, #noweather directive. Also made cal frames run in last or only set by default, plus config checkbox for old behavior.

Really, cal frames should not be done in each #set, right? Only at the end of the last (or only) set. This would allow one plan to do possibly multi-set imaging, flats (chain out and back) and then dawn cal frames. But for people who have existing plans, this would break them. So I need to have a way to control the behavior. A checkbox option for "dark/bias in last #set only" and make it default on. Doc the change in the green section of the release notes.

Add a new pseudo-target #noweather which will disconnect the weather, thus preventing weather safety interrupts. Could disallow this if there is a dome and it is not closed!
