ORC-1873: use SDP 0.18.0 and kafka instead of qa.kafka
Current status (2023.12.18):
- updated versions to latest releases (SDP, vis-receive, pointing-offset, pointing pipeline)
- updated code to use ska-sdp-cbf-emulator==7.0.0
TODO:
- for some reason the QA metrics no longer appear correctly (e.g. this -> fixedprint(f"Current Receiver State: {queue_connector.receiver_state}")
and code in that cell) -> will need Naledi's help to figure out why (will come back to it in the new year)
- there are still repeated data points for mocked pointings coming from kafka -> need Yanda's help
Note:
- Latest pointing-offset script makes sure that we no longer need to decode the offsets as they appear on the QueueConnector tango attribute. This will likely require changes in TMC
