When using Capture Dark or Capture Flat, set FRAMETYP Fits header keyword with appropriate values

Hello,

Some post-processing tools, such as PixInsight, can automatically sort captured frames into appropriate processing bins based upon the value of the FRAMETYP Fits Header keyword.

When using tools such as Capture Dark and Capture Flat, SharpCap "knows" what types of frames are being captured at each stage of the capture process. It would be helpful for users if SharpCap will automatically populate the FRAMETYP Fits keyword with "Dark" or "Flat" values as might be appropriate for a given frame.
