Latest version of pyyaml warns about using pyyaml.load being
deprecated without providing a loader. We use a small subset
of yaml so loading only basic objects is fine.
See https://github.com/yaml/pyyaml/wiki/PyYAML-yaml.load(input)-Deprecation
for more detail.

On windows, the organisation and application must be specified
explicitly to work in the tests.

For some reason doing this without a type worked fine on my machine, but
not on the CI builders.

The functionality was the same across calibration and focus.

Currently, there is no way to load a CSV file (which is the format
that the full calibration is in) into mantid to be used by the GUI.
Until that is added, the option to select the full calibration has been
hidden from the user.
The functionality is there, so once the loading works for large CSVs the
hide() call can be removed.

Even though the filenames differ to the Python 3 ones
Python sees them as the same module and tries to load
the Python 2 versions in preference.

The plan for this is to use a separate settings helper to do the work
with QSettings so that multiple areas of the code can access these
functions rather than having it be imported from the model. This keeps
the MVP systems separated from one another.

This commit renames the MergeWorkspacesWithLimits algorithm to MatchAndMergeWorkspaces as it better describes the intended usage
This commit also adds tests relating to the expanded usage of the
MatchAndMergeWorkspaces algorithm

Re: #27445

This commit modifies the MergeWorkspacesWithLimits algorithm to be usable
outside of the polaris scripts. The changes to the algorithm are as follows:

- Fixing the ADSValidator export to python.
- The Algorithm can now accept a group workspace, a multi-specta workspace, or a list of workspaces.
- The Algorithm can take an input use with MatchSpectra for if the scale or offset should be calculated

Re: #27445

For thin samples the number of sample elements ends up quite high
and simulating each wavelength is unrealistic.

- Remove repeated searching checks

- Split test into reasonable chunks

- Make rb_num naming consistent

This commit corrects issues related to the changing property names in
MergeWorkspacesWithLimits and TotScatCalculateSelfScattering

re: #27445

This commit makes several changes requested during code review including:

- Rename CalculateSelfScatteringCorrection to TotScatCalculateSelfScattering
- Removing unnecessary __init__ function
- Correcting property docstring for CalFileName
- Changing CalFileName into a FileProperty

re: #27445

Vanadium output files are now saved to the user directory if an RB
number is specifies so that users can have all of the generated data
from processing.

Focusing now saves as .gss, .nxs, and .dat files.

Now using sample instead of a mix of both of these.
