Add catalog attribute to track which names should be used in object list #408

Description

@brickbots

Some catalogs, like planets, WDS, comets, and bright stars are better served with common names than with catalog code + index in object lists.

This issue proposes:

  • Add a way to tag a catalog as 'Names preferred' or some such
    • Add this as a field in the DB for a catalog
    • Change catalog loader to set this for some catalogs
    • Modify the catalog class to expose this, potentially pushing this into all the objects so mixed lists will get the right display per object
  • Add logic into Object List and Object Details UI modules to check this tag and use the first common name for display
