astropy -> pandas

[davidthomas5412]

Problem:
We make heavy use of the astropy datastructures (table, column). It is not as widely used, documented, or as fast as pandas. For fits files we can use pyfits, so there should not be a strong reason for us to continue using astropy data structures.

Solution:
Replace astropy data structures with pandas equivalents. Confirm everything still works.

I approve this solution. Hopefully the switch will not be onerous!
