These changes handle TIFFs with a band of Palette colour interpretation type, using the -expand argument to gdal_translate. This takes the contents of the colour palette and applies it to the rgb/rgba bands in the output file.
This resolves the following error encountered when standardising historical imagery survey SN9911:
which used the band arguements -b 1 -b 1 -b 1.
This PR supersedes #310 which was proposed when previously processing historical imagery. I've made a new PR mainly to simplify having to rebase 6 months worth of changes from master onto that branch.
Changes from the earlier PR are that I have now removed the raising of an exception and the handling to catch it, which were the aspects still under discussion preventing it being merged.
