Fix MET filters

Nicolas Postiau requested to merge npostiau/shears:metFilters into master

Something was wrong with the MET filters for the data: all filters were "shifted", and we didn't apply the ones we expected. I think I've solved this at the Baobab level. Anyway, we've decided with Pascal that it's not worth it to still do so minor adjustments on 2016 data, so we simply decided not to apply any METfilter at all in the end (that's also because we don't want to reprocess a whole bunch of Baobabs simply to fix this, and we don't expect many problematic events which should have been rejected by METfilters anyway). If you want to re-enable them, simply uncomment the line. The histo etc is filled anyway.

As a side note: for now, both the Baobab and the HZZ2l2nu analysis default parameters make the code crash. I didn't fix it because you're supposed to know what you're doing if you run on the code by hand, but here's the way:

  • For Baobabs, put the isMC flag to 0 (it's a data file!);
  • For the HZZ2l2nu analysis, simply take one of our "official" bonzai catalogs and ensure that you put reasonable numbers for maxFile and maxEvents. (The file linked is an old one, several variables are missing.)
