dummy implementation of ITk/Pixel radiation damage

Tomas Dado requested to merge tdado/athena:ITkTemplateRadiationDamage into master

Replaces !59111 (closed)

Summary

This MR adds a dummy implementation of the pixel radiation damage correction aimed for ITk. The idea is that a correction to the lorentz angle based on the depth of the initial deposited charge is applied and then the deposited charge is corrected based on the intial deposited charge. This is done by reading pre-calculated (dummy for now) histograms that contain the LA values or charge corrections as a function of initial energy deposition depth.

Caveats

For now, only dummy histograms are set. Only the planar sensor has the code implemented, not the 3D one, but it should be easy to implement it also for 3D once we address all issues.
