Add new dEdx calibration condition format
PR description:
This PR adds a new dEdx condition format for dEdx gain calibrations meant for the 2024 PbPb UPC reco. It includes a new condition format DeDxCalibration to store the pixel/strip chip-level gain calibrations and strip detector properties (threshold t, coupling α and standard deviation σ of the Gaussian noise derived from data) and a producer DeDxCalibrationDbCreator to derive the calibration database files.
The details of the dEdx calibration for 2023 PbPb UPC are documented in results and in the CADI HIN-12-016.
