Improve ComponentAccumulator-based configuration of Forward Detector Simulation
The original implementation was missing the ForwardTransportSvc
configuration. Adding this makes the output of CA-based and legacy configuration forward detector simulation jobs agree. Will also fix ATLASSIM-6380.
This MR also includes a temporary patch to cast the beam_energy
string retrieved from input file metadata to float
when auto-configuring the Beam.Energy
config flag. A more robust fix for this will be introduced in !60351 (merged).
