FITS headers can be extremely lengthy, and CARTA often struggles with HDF5 files that are converted from FITS files with very long attribute lists. We should store the unproccessed FITS header as a single attribute FITS_HEADER. This will allow us to parse the header in an identical manner to that of FITS files, and will also allow us to do a proper round-trip conversion back to FITS.
Using FITS_HEADER means there's no chance of a collision with an existing header entry, because FITS header entry names are limited to 8 characters
