Full Changelog: v1.2.3...v1.2.4

VIP v1.2.3

• Fixed missing hciplot during installation;
• Minimum version required for exoplanet data challenge - phase 2.

VIP v1.2.2

• Added KLIP and LOCI Forward Model Match Filter algorithms (thanks @chdahlqvist);
• Added new bad pixel correction algorithm for IFS data (leveraging the radial expansion of the PSF for better identification of bad pixels);
• All PCA functions can now run PCA-ADI channel per channel for input 4D IFS cube (i.e. without necessarily using SDI);
• New exclude_negative_side_lobe option for pca_grid (as the negative side lobes can bias the inferred SNR, hence the optimal number of principal components).
