Mapping between keys in README and keys in the interface doc

I took the table from the README from this repo and tried mapping the keys for the start_observation command from table 1 in the Interface Specification from MAC to SC3+4. Looks like there is some difference between the two. Since Markdown pasting in Slack doesn't work, I just put it in an issue over here. I don't really mind where we discuss it further, as long as we are consistent in doing so :).

Interface fields in bold are implemented by APERTIF but do not appear in the interface document.
