Compression of floating point data using the GZIP_2 fits compression algorithm is *not* lossless. To avoid pitfalls with this algorithm, compression is disabled by default. Also expose the `quantize_level` keyword argument to enable adjustment of the compression algorithm, if compression is desired. See the astropy FITS image documentation for further information: https://docs.astropy.org/en/stable/io/fits/api/images.html Closes #135.
