nearq2cam - Convert quaternions to camera angles for NEAR
"nearq2cam" will read the 4 quaternion values from the input cube labels
and convert them to 3 camera angles using the APL definition of the
relationship between quaternions and camera angles.  The resultant
camera angles will be written to the cube labels in:
  INSTRUMENT_DECLINATION
  INSTRUMENT_RIGHT_ASCENSION
  INSTRUMENT_TWIST

Note: This program should not be run immediately after "msi2isis".  The
resolution difference between the vertical and horizontal directions
must be removed with "magcube" with the parameters: ons=537, onl=412.
And the planet angles and radii need to be added to the labels with
"planlab".

Warning: there is no guarantee that this program will work for any other
         mission.

Programmer: K Edwards, Q & D Programming, for Mark Robinson at NWU
