PSF fitting driver scripts should handle exceptions

Description

Scripts that call for PSF fitting should handle errors that currently occur when PSF fitting fails, for example as per DM-10791.

Until DM-10791 is fixed and a best-effort PSF is returned in all cases, processing should proceed using the nominal/placeholder PSF, and a bit should be set somewhere to record that this was the case, as well as a warning logged that a PSF-fit-failure exception was handled.

I don't know of another ticket so I'm inclined to keep it around, but given that I have forgotten this Jira issue several times without forgetting about the core problem, us eventually closing it as a duplicate after fixing it on another ticket is a fairly likely fate for it.

Seems like it's still needing doing, but probably at least needs renaming in the title, if not re-filing.

Just going through old tickets and found this, and wondering whether this is now outdated, or should be closed, or if this is still the ticket to track this work.

Reviewing for CCB: still quite relevant, the "driver scripts" terminology will soon be outdated.  It's a lot of work to do this carefully, and it needs to be done carefully, but it's something we need to make a serious effort at sometime between the retirement of Gen2 and any attempt at regular nightly processing.
