`test_last_full_moon.py` finds the most recent full moon, prints illumination, phase angle,
altitude/azimuth, and parallactic angle, then lists the sunrise and sunset for that day.
It exercises the full skyfield stack including the `sun_events_in_range()` almanac call —
useful after updating skyfield or changing observer config.
