kst fails to honour the BLANK card of the FITS header.

FITS files generally have a BLANK card in the headers which indicate the value which is assigned to pixels that are uninitialised.

kst ignores this value: instead it paints these unintialised pixels the colour corresponding to the BLANK pixel value.

Ideally, these pixels should not be painted.
