Issue DM-4973: Reconsider high detection threshold in CharacterizeImageTask
[~price] makes the [reasonable recommendation|https://community.lsst.org/t/why-was-detection-includethresholdmultiplier-10-for-old-processccdtask/500/6] that we consider providing PSF estimation with the N brightest sources in the image, rather than only detecting bright sources. [~rowen] reasonably believes that this is beyond the scope of DM-4692, hence this new issue. There should be very little new code needed here, but it may involve quite a bit of experimentation and validation.
