Enable possibility to have a linear removeClonesX

Louis Henry requested to merge lohenry-changeSeedingRemoveClones into master

As shown in flame graph below, the scaling of removeClonesX is pretty brutal: image

Several solutions exist, such as the implementation of the Allen-like clone removal in linear time. However, due to the fact that X seeds coming from a single case are sorted in X, a break condition can be implemented early to only test neighbouring tracks. I am curious as to the effect on Pb-Pb timings.

  • On Pb-Pb, timing of the seeding goes from 858780.434 to 427171.004 (51% gain) -> I will look for further improvement;
  • Efficiency: on pp, +0.3% ghosts and +0.13% efficiency on Long.
  • Efficiency: on Pb-Pb, increases a lot (2%), but ghosts too. Before:
