Description

Source type should be stored and available as sourcegenerator method;

i.e.

sourcegenerator.source.source_type

should be one of:

"sso", "star", "extragalactic", "unknown"

and maybe we can add sub_type for more info on type ; i.e. which type of star, which type of AGN or transient, etc?

Research direction

Start by tracing the sourcegenerator.source object and how source properties are currently stored and exposed. Add the requested source_type values—sso, star, extragalactic, and unknown—and determine from the existing model whether sub_type belongs in the same change. Done means sourcegenerator.source.source_type is available with the specified values.
