Apologies in advance if this is the wrong way to handle this.

When trying to analyse data contained in GEO frames, which have channel names prefixed with G1 I ran into problems, as bilby_pipe is unable to understand (I think) a channel list where the channel isn't prefixed with the name of the detector as understood by bilby. So bilby was expecting to open GEO600:channel_name but this was stored in G1:channel_name.

I think it's possible this might be handled in bilby_pipe as well, though this approach does fix the problem.

I'm in favour of this in principle, I suspect not many people are using GEO, but it would be good to ensure backward compatibility if possible.

@transientlunatic it would be nice to see this merged before the EoL for GEO. Do you have capacity to address Colm's comment above?

I also think there are some unrelated changes that shouldn't be in the PR.
