Make compilation flags for duplicate cleaning and triplet pLSs into runtime flags (TrackLooper PR#408 + cmssw PR#31)

[VourMa]

As per title. The way I did this is the following:

• Pull CMSSW_14_1_0_pre3_LST_X_LSTCore_realfiles_batch1_devel by running:

  cmsrel CMSSW_14_1_0_pre3
  cd CMSSW_14_1_0_pre3/src/
  cmsenv
  git cms-init
  git remote add SegLink git@github.com:SegmentLinking/cmssw.git
  git fetch SegLink CMSSW_14_1_0_pre3_LST_X_LSTCore_realfiles_batch1_devel
  git checkout CMSSW_14_1_0_pre3_LST_X_LSTCore_realfiles_batch1_devel
  git cms-addpkg RecoTracker/LST RecoTracker/LSTCore Configuration/ProcessModifiers Configuration/PyReleaseValidation RecoTracker/ConversionSeedGenerators RecoTracker/FinalTrackSelectors RecoTracker/IterativeTracking
  scram b -j 8
  git checkout -b CMSSW_14_1_0_pre3_LST_X_LSTCore_realfiles_TrackLooperPRXXX

• Copy the files I changed in my SegmentLinking/TrackLooper#408 onto the corresponding files within RecoTracker/LSTCore. Everytime I copied a file, I did a git diff for that file. If the changes were exactly the same as in the TrackLooper PR, I continued the following file. If not, which can happen if the file has been reformatted by code-format, I reverted the change with git checkout -- filename and modified manually.
• Transfer the changes I had done for the corresponding cmssw PR, if any (in this case, #31).
• Run scram b -j 12 code-checks >& c.log && scram b -j 12 code-format >& f.log.

For instructions on testing the PR, probably #36 would need to be finalized. I will follow up based on the discussion there.

However, locally merging the aforementioned PR, I managed to run the validation for this one. The plots can be found in this link, and are to be compared with the corresponding ones from the validation of SegmentLinking/TrackLooper#408 here. Results match, so this PR is good to go from my side.

I'll check if the CI is working.
