disable forward electron DQM if those are not reconstructed

Julien Maurer requested to merge jmaurer/athena:23.0-egamma-fwd-DQM-130923 into 23.0

Some of the heavy-ion configuration modes disable forward electron reconstruction: https://gitlab.cern.ch/atlas/athena/-/blob/23.0/Reconstruction/HeavyIonRec/HIRecConfig/python/HIModeFlags.py#L12

I think the egamma monitoring won't fail gracefully if the ForwardElectrons container is not available. With a quick test in the context of DATREP-286, I see:

16:00:16 fwdelCBTightMonAlg 0 0 ERROR evtStore() does not contain Forward Electron Collection with name 'StoreGateSvc+ForwardElectrons'

Hence this proposed MR. What do you think @laforge and @christos?
