Bounded track parameters store also free position and momentum

The bounded track parameters in Acts/EventData/SingleTrackParameters.hpp store 6-vector of local track parameters and derived position and momentum vectors. The later are pure duplicated data and effectively double the size. This duplicate information should be removed. In cases where really the free parameter information is needed, the new free parameters should be used instead.
