Description
I've been running into this error in a script lately, and without having a REPL to attach to it's basically impossible to diagnose for me. I was thinking maybe we should list the antennas which are not in the antenna_numbers array

Research direction
Start in pyuvdata/uvdata/uvdata.py at lines 3361-3364, where the missing-antennas error is raised. Reproduce the error from a script without a REPL, then update the message so it identifies the antennas absent from antenna_numbers and verify the resulting diagnostic.
