[WIP] Adding abstraction

[ehsteve]

The purpose of this merge request is to abstract out our instrument and mission names so that other missions could use this. I also was able to optimize some of the code.

This is a work in progress.

Open tasks

• Could not figure out how to programmatically import hermes.log
• Not sure i understand how level upgrade occurs. Looks like data levels are hard coded which is bad practice.

@dbarrous how do you want to proceed with this PR?

@ehsteve I'm currently trying to abstract it a bit more so that we just have a singular vars.py file that we can modify with the mission name, mission package, and instrument name instead.

For the open tasks on the levels, I'm going to import them from the mission package since that makes the most sense, and that way it isn't hard-coded into the processing module. Also still trying to figure out how to import hermes.log programmatically as well.

I like the idea of hosting the variables in another file but seems like it would more appropriate as a non python file. Maybe a simple csv or a toml or yaml file?

[dbarrous]

Great idea! ^ I'll put them in a YAML file, and pull from there.
