Fix for TileDigitsMaker when running digitization w/o pile-up in AthenaMT

John Derek Chapman requested to merge jchapman/athena:FixTileDigitsMaker_ATLASSIM-4290_master into master

After the changes in !25998 (merged) it was possible for TileDigitsMaker::initialize() to return without explicit initializing the new m_overlayRawChannelContainerKey and m_overlayRawChannelContainerKey SG::ReadHandleKey member variables. This caused a crash when running digitization w/o pile-up in AthenaMT. See ATLASSIM-4290.

This merge request fixes the crash by ensuring that m_overlayRawChannelContainerKey and m_overlayRawChannelContainerKey are always properly initialized even if they will not be used in the current job. (They are only used in Overlay jobs.)
