Date:   Mon Dec 5 11:40:58 2022 +0100

    Removed usage of HistogramPersistencySvc and put all Histos into same output file

commit b30838b4
Author: Sebastien Ponce <sebastien.ponce@cern.ch>
Date:   Fri Nov 4 14:51:41 2022 +0100

    Add option in PyConf to print Calo specific histos

    This is probably not the best way and we need something more generic to decide which histos should go out and where (which file).
    But this allows to move to thread safe histos for the Calo right now.
