Polar Aligment

@xurxia that seems very close to what a polemaster does, except that the rotation of the mount is manual (via hand controller, computer control, or manually).

The problem is that the alignment will require adjusting the alt/az screws on the mount to improve the alignment, which isn't easy to automate (they need to be firmly tightened to avoid any movement, especially with heavy equipment).
