Acts material mapping and validation

Corentin Allaire requested to merge corentin/athena:acts-vol-mat-map into master

This merged request fully implement the Acts material mapping for both surface and volumes.

Now that volume material can be mapped the Acts extrapolator was updated to work in dense environment. Some additional option were added to the extrapolator and mapper. The material track writer was improved to store information related to the associated surface/volume associated to the material interaction.

To validate the Acts extrapolation with the Acts material map a version of the GeantFollower that can compare G4 Step with the Acts and ATLAS extrapolation was added. This GeantFollower is base on the ATLAS one. As well as a short root macro to plot the output.
