Ignore missing L1Calo RoI ROBs in offline reco of Run-2 data

Rafal Bielski requested to merge rbielski/athena:skip-l1calo-missingrob-run2 into 22.0-mc20

As we re-discovered in r22 reprocessing of 2015 data, missing L1Calo RoI ROBs were not flagged online by HLT as errors at the beginning of 2015 data taking (until November) and such events did not end up in the debug stream, but instead could end up in the Main stream. The new r22 decoding algorithm for these ROBs checks for such missing data and flags it as errors unless they come from disabled detectors (in DetectorMask) or are included in the "MaybeMissingROBs" property.

Add the L1Calo RoI ROBs by default to the MaybeMissingROBs whenever we run offline reconstruction of Run-2 data. This works around the errors and allows the events to be processed further despite being incomplete. It was concluded the missing data have no impact on physics analysis and the events can be still used.

Closes ATR-24493
