First commit on sensor unbiasing in PR VP

Laurent Dufour requested to merge ld-sensor-unbiasing into master

This adds the functionality of sensor unbiasing to the pattern reco for the VP. Originally, intended to just have an extra template argument, but this led to problems in the template specialization.

The use-case for this is to unbias a full module before the track fit even runs. From Run 1/2 we've seen that this unbiasing leads to slightly different efficiencies than a track-fit unbiasing. The intended use is solely to run offline or in a specialised monitoring, and ideally shouldn't affect the normal throughput.

  • We want to see if this impacts the throughput, and by how much
  • Then, a test is to be added which explicitly unbiases a module

Many thanks to @ahennequ for basically guiding me through every step here.

Goes with Moore!1698 (merged)
