TrkExUtils - Escape from infinite loop

Hi everybody,

this MR provides a potential fix to move the stuck jobs in ATLASRECTS-6628 forward. The underlying reason is that the extrapolator tries to move a particle which just left ATLAS behind itself forward through ATLAS

and an endless journey begins with not moving from the place. Given that changes in the extrapolator are always delicate, I tag @goblirsc, @christos, @sroe, @amorley, @gavrilen for another review, meaning that this MR deserves the label review-pending-expert. In the meantime, I'll launch a local test job over 10k events to ensure that nothing has changed there.

Tagging: @fmeloni, @oducu as reprocessing coordinators, @emoyse, @elmsheus, and @pberta as software coordinators

The philosopher of the day is kind of an outlier from the series but he nicely matches the theme of the day somehow.
