Add protection against RNG bug

Spyros Argyropoulos requested to merge rngbug into master

Changes introduced

Add test to protect against RNG bug in Pythia see AGENE-2278

Tests

Request where this was used: ATLMCPROD-11413
MR with jO: !3410 (merged)

There is no way to catch this properly since https://gitlab.cern.ch/atlas/athena/-/blob/main/Generators/Pythia8_i/src/Pythia8_i.cxx#L219 is only an info message which is not printed out by default.

For the moment I check the jO which is not 100% safe since on can have this line commented out but it's better than nothing.
