Improvements for TGeo geometry binding

Andreas Salzburger requested to merge 685-tgeo-plugin-improvements into master

Closes #685 (closed)

This MR adds new functionality to the TGeoPlugin to allow more detector setups. There are a few necessary adaptions in the Core/Geometry module, particularly concerning ring layouts and layer splitting.

It adds:

  • automated detection of layer splitting (if configured to do so)
  • automated detection or end-cap ring layout (if configured to do so)
  • AnnulusBounds for DiscSurfaces
  • updates the ObjWriter for AnnulusBounds
  • introduces interface for IdentifierProvider

It will allow to build the silicon part of:

  • sPhenix
  • ATLAS ITk
  • CMS
