Prescale module that interfaces with ArtdaqSharedMemoryService to get index #208

On ICARUS, they're running into an issue where they have 10 processors per EventBuilder, and setting a prescale filter causes batches of 10 events to go out at the prescale interval. It would be better to have a prescaler which knows that art process index and automatically offsets the prescale to provide a steadier stream of events.
