Description
add a glossary of columns, relating name of column to what they are/their meaning, as suggested by @havok2063 .
the minimum viable for this feature is simply a panel/dialog showing all the possible columns. can be extended in future to describe each column specifically.
note: we should change the list of columns to be non-flag columns, which can be reverted if necessary (see #50)

Research direction
Start by locating the code that builds the column list and the panel or dialog entry point, then inspect the sdss/datamodel products and DSI sources named in the issue. Use #50 as context for excluding flag columns; done means a glossary view lists the available non-flag columns, while detailed descriptions remain a future extension.
