Implementing float compression in the IO framework

Alaettin Serhan Mete requested to merge amete/athena:master-floatcompression-xaod into master

The main discussion will take place under ATEAM-587. In a nutshell, this MR will implement the float compression in the IO layer. The idea is to add functionality to compress float and std::vector<float> on the POOL converters side of the Aux stuff. This will be configurable per stream, similar to the ItemList in the AthenaOutputStream which relies on AuxSelection.

As this is a substantial change it'll take a couple iterations. Therefore, it's currently marked as WIP.

PS : We're in a good state to merge this in as an initial prototype. Therefore, I'm removing the WIP.
