Community Release Note for PACS Calibration Set v78

PACS calibration file set v78 incorporates the following differences from the previous community release, v77.

Photometer

New columns were introduced in the aperture correction calibration file to account for the slight differences in PSF shapes depending on scan speed( 20 or 60 ) and observing mode (prime or parallel). So far, aperture corrections were only provided for the 20”/s prime mode observations but now the aperture correction task is able to chose aperture corrections most appropriate for the observations if the user provides two optional parameters paralellObservation (True/False) and scanSpeed (20 or 60).
