Add new tool for the application of EGamma MC variable corrections

Nils Gillwald requested to merge nigillwa/athena:new_ey_MC_correction_tool into 21.2

I developed a tool ElectronPhotonVariableCorrectionTool for the application of MC variable corrections to be used in EGamma derivations.

Users can use any function and several different input parameters for the function in order to correct photon or electron variables. The functionality is described in the README.

This tool was developed in coordination with the EGamma conveners (@boonekam @jdevivi @jmaurer) as part of my qualification task.

Basic tests of the tool correcting electrons and (un-)converted photons as well as comparing the tool output to the output of the IsolationCorrectionTool are attached (test_ElectronPhotonVariableCorrectionTool_comparison_with_IsolationCorrectionTool.log and test_ElectronPhotonVariableCorrectionTool_electrons_unconverted_converted_photons.log)
