Add FrankenBlast SBI++ Model from Anya Nugent. Includes photo-z support, redshift up to z = 1.5, and a better photometric noise model used in the SBI++ training.
- Implement new SBI++ model and simulated photometry files
- Adjust workflow so that photo-z estimation happens before local aperture computation, when necessary
- Add logic to distinguish cases when spec-z versus photo-z model are used

Note model currently does not use SDSS, but Blast will ideally use an alternate model that does have SDSS.
