RHadrons updates for stops and sbottoms in master

Zach Marshall requested to merge zmarshal/athena:22_RHadronsUpdates into master

This merge request fixes two sets of problems.

First, there were problems in the logic that assigned hadronic interactions to R-hadrons. The problem was essentially that one quark in the light quark system was ignored when calculating the R-hadron properties. This is (surprisingly) a quite good approximation as long as you aren't making extremely heavy R-hadrons, and as long as you don't have stop or sbottom R-mesons, where there is only one light quark in the R-hadron. That's fixed, the list of R-hadron interactions has changed somewhat, and the results change a little bit.

Second, we needed a few minor adjustments to get stop and sbottom R-hadron simulation working. That should all be done. Validation plots have been made and everything.

This MR gets master back in sync with 21.0 following !23144 (merged)
