Bug fix: if multiple Hough clusters are processed for the same X-Z track candidate, the number of X hits should be kept fixed

GitLab service scheduled maintenance on Friday, March 21st 2025 as of 08h00 Geneva time for an estimated period of 1 hour. Further information under OTG0154918.
The variable nXHits
should be a const
since it is the same for every loop corresponding to a different Hough cluster candidate. If a hit of one of the X layers is removed in the hit cleaning procedure, the count on X hits should be reset for the next Hough cluster candidate.
This bug fix has negligible effect on physics performance, however it does change the references. The efficiency and ghost rates are expected to go up slightly.
