Summary0001597: Search object always use SAC database
DescriptionIf I disable SAC database from settings and choose a different catalog (NGC2000 or custom catalog OpenNGC), when I use the search function to search for a NGC object Skychart always returns position from SAC database.

Seems that SAC it's hardcoded in the program and cannot be disabled: in fact if I disable all deep sky catalogs, Skychart always find NGC objects.
TagsNo tags attached.

It was a request to allow to search for objects without a catalog activated for drawing.
This is fixed by revision 3412 by searching the catgen catalog before sac.

Now OpenNGC completely replace NGC2000 and it is include in the base skychart package by default.
The selection of the catalog is done in the "CdC deepsky" tab.
It show Messier label if available and obey the option to not filter the Messier objects.
It is compatible with the fits pictures, but I will redo all the ngc pictures to get the better position.

For compatibility with the other version I do a few change to the OpenNGC data:
- remove leading zero in name
- add a space between NGC and the number
- the catalog short name is ONGC
this is described in this file: https://sourceforge.net/p/skychart/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/tools/cat/openngc/src/cdc_change.txt

add the catalog: https://sourceforge.net/p/skychart/code/3411/
fix for better integration: https://sourceforge.net/p/skychart/code/3412/
totally replace ngc2000: https://sourceforge.net/p/skychart/code/3413/
