[15.0.X] Adapt template pixel cpe algo to better handle shortened or broken clusters

[mroguljic]

Backport

Backport of https://github.com/cms-sw/cmssw/pull/48356 to CMSSW 15.0.X to request data rereco for validation

PR description:

While validating https://github.com/cms-sw/cmssw/pull/47966, it was found that the proposed changes to generic CPE algorithm are not beneficial. This PR contains only the proposed changes to the template CPE algorithm that are simpler, and beneficial for long clusters in heavily irradiated pixel sensors (right-most columns in slides 23 onwards). The proposed changes to the algorithm are gated behind a process modifier.

PR validation:

PR passes the basic battery of tests. In the cms-bot wf tests, we expect many small differences also osberved in the main PR. They are understood to come from uninitialized variables (that have been in CMSSW for some time) in the class touched by this PR, causing some numerical instabilities. The uninitialized variables will be fixed in a separate PR.

This backport is not identical to its master version, at least in this file: Configuration/PyReleaseValidation/python/upgradeWorkflowComponents.py Is there any reason?

Apologies, I missed the previous comment. The only difference is the removal of "RecoGlobalFakeHLT" step in the related worfkflow. I believe it is not defined in 150X, and runTheMatrix would report an error with that step included, so I removed it.

EDIT: That step is not important for this PR because template reco does not run at HLT

Indeed, the relevant PR #47401 was only merged for 151X

this comment is anyway irrelevant, because in 15.1.X the step RecoGlobalFakeHLT is running a fake HLT menu without any reconstruction.

This pull request is fully signed and it will be integrated in one of the next CMSSW_15_0_X IBs (tests are also fine) and once validation in the development release cycle CMSSW_15_1_X is complete. This pull request will be automatically merged.
