Removing additional photons from light mesons in Truth3 collection

Merged Zach Marshall requested to merge zmarshal/athena:21.2_TRUTH3_Updates into 21.2

The original cut on photons within TRUTH3 was that they not be identified as coming from a pi0 and that they be at least 20 GeV. This leaves a large number of photons in simple samples that are identified as having come from a light meson and are quite low momentum. We shouldn't need those either (etas and rhos are not interesting), so this MR modifies the collection requirements to look particularly for those not from light mesons either.

This saves us about 0.35 kB/event, or about 10% of the total file size, and takes the photon containers down from about 0.6 to 0.25 kB/event. After this, it's no longer so dominant.
