csphothybv3: A hybrid sky radiance scan scenario version 3 data

This hybrid scan starts at the position of the Sun and first follows the great circle that is orthogonal to the Principal Plane until it reaches a viewing zenith angle of 75 degrees and then follows the almucantar keep that viewing zenith angle constant. The scan is then repeated in the opposite azimuth direction. This mode was designed to optimize the range of scattering angles and significantly improves the retrieval of inversion parameters especially at low solar zenith angles.
