Description:
       Data items in the DIFFRN_DETECTOR_ELEMENT category record
              the details about spatial layout and other characteristics
              of each element of a detector which may have multiple elements.
              In most cases, giving more detailed information
              in ARRAY_STRUCTURE_LIST and ARRAY_STRUCTURE_LIST_AXIS
              is preferable to simply providing the centre of the
              detector element.
Example:| Example 1 - Detector d1 is composed of four CCD detector elements,
        each 200 mm by 200 mm, arranged in a square, in the pattern
                   1     2
                      *
                   3     4
        Note that the beam centre is slightly displaced from each of the
        detector elements, just beyond the lower right corner of 1,
        the lower left corner of 2, the upper right corner of 3 and
        the upper left corner of 4.  For each element, the detector
        face coordiate system, is assumed to have the fast axis
        running from left to right and the slow axis running from
        top to bottom with the origin at the top left corner.
