mergermb - Merge entries from one geometry spice table into another
"mergermb"  merges entries from one geometry SPICE file into another.
A geometry spice table is an ISIS table file containing the following
columns:  IMAGE_KEY_ID, IMAGE_NUMBER, PRODUCT_ID, START_TIME,
INSTRUMENT_DECLINATION, INSTRUMENT_RIGHT_ASCENSION,
INSTRUMENT_TWIST, SC_TARGET_POSITION_VECTOR, PLANET_DECLINATION,
PLANET_RIGHT_ASCENSION, PLANET_ROTATION, SC_SUN_POSITION_VECTOR,
ENTRY_DATE (1993-08-24T10:55:00.000Z), and NODE.

"mergermb" attempts to merge entries from the TBLFROM file to the TBLTO
file by IMAGE_KEY_ID.  If IMAGE_KEY_ID is not defined then
IMAGE_NUMBER is used.  An entry is considered empty if both of these
values are undefined an an error is flagged.  If the TBLTO file
already contains an entry for the IMAGE_KEY_ID or IMAGE_NUMBER, then
the entry is updated only if the entry date is more recent.

If the system goes down during a file update, the TBLTO file may be
corrupted, so the user should consider making a backup copy.
