Description
Currently, the uncertainty correction stage only generates corrected errors for flux columns. During postprocessing, we generate magnitude columns, and we should generate a corrected magnitude error corresponding to the corrected flux errors from the uncertainty correction.
During DP2 processing, this was done manually after the stage run, which led to errors such as incorrect est_size that shouldn't occur as part of the pipeline.

Research direction
Locate the uncertainty correction stage and the postprocessing code that generates magnitude columns. Trace how corrected flux errors are produced, then verify that the corresponding corrected magnitude error is generated in the pipeline and that the est_size issue no longer requires manual processing.
