This pull request adds support for Nonius Kappa CCD diffractometers, which are still actively used in a number of labs.
It has been tested against:
These datasets are from different labs, and consist of multiple scans with different settings for kappa, so they are able to diagnose errors in goniometer geometry. In both cases DIALS successfully indexed around 90% of spots and refined a good crystal unit cell using data from all scans. Merging looked OK.
I have chosen to include polarisation for a single-bounce imperfect monochromator. I suspect addition of phosphor thickness and absorption would improve the merge results but I don't have access to this information.
