3.6.1.3 Flagging shadowed data with mode ’shadow’

Visibilities where one antenna is obscured by another antenna (typically at low elevations) can be flagged with shadow=True:

shadow        =   True  #  Flag shadowed antennas.  
   diameter   =   -1.0  #  Effective diameter (m) to use. -1 ==>antenna diameter

Note that this can only flag data shadowed by antennas known in the MS (in the same subarray for example), not by antennas not in the dataset.
