Tune BdsToVV and BdsTohhhh lines and fix BdsTohhhh mass windows

Matthew David Monk requested to merge mmonk_bnoc_tuning into bnoc_run3

This MR has two main purposes:

  • Fix the mass windows used in the 2- and 3-body mass cuts in the BdsTohhhh lines which were cutting on un-physical combinations (e.g. (pi+ pi+))
  • Tune some of the lines to try and reduce some rates which were a bit large

I've evaluated the efficiencies on MC samples to verify the changes have not killed any lines and I also calculated the new rates on expected 2024 minbias MC (the expected_2024_min_bias_hlt1_filtered from the test file DB).

I calculated the total bandwidth of the BdsToVV + BdsTohhhh lines (using this snippet https://gitlab.cern.ch/-/snippets/2694) as: 17.8 MB/s although I'm not sure if that is really useful on its own or not.

The rates/efficiencies were calculated with the changes to the topo from !2823 (merged).
