Description

Hi,

At the moment it is possible to use a kwarg with the ahi_hsd reader to disable the masking of the space pixels (mask_space).

The same feature doesn't exist when working from hrit; for example this prevents seeing the Moon in some recent Himawari-9 imagery that comes through EUMETCast in the HRIT format.

Is this a possible feature to carry across? I've tried knocking it out with my limited Python abilities in the reader but to no avail.

Many thanks :)
