MuonR4 Geoemetry - Chop the chamber into smaller volumes

Johannes Junggeburth requested to merge jojungge/athena:SplitMSVolumes into main

In the MS tracking geometry building, all readout elements in a sector-layer have been put into single envelope volume. However, initial navigation tests showed that this might be too fat for the frustrum navigation --> chop the volume into smaller chunks

  • The chamber is now restricted to the set of readoutelements belonging to the same muon station image
  • However, the sector envelope coordinate system is utterly useful in the pattern finding stage -> Introduce the SpectrometerSector which summarizes all chambers from a sector-layer and provides the same coordinate system as the MuonChamber before.
  • Adapt method naming of the SpacePoint, SegmentSeed, Segment of chamber -> msSector.
