Briefly, what does this PR introduce?

The BTOF active volume is modified to be more realistic. Now there are dead spaces between each sensors on a stave and extra dead space is reserved in the center of the BTOF to make space for the central supporting ring structure. Variables relevant to the dead spaces, sensor sizes and the width of the ring are adjustable from tof_barrel.xml. image

The check run "eicweb/eic_container" has been pending for about a day now while everything else (except linux-eic-shell / validate-material-map) have passed. Does anyone know why is that job pending for so long? Are there things I can do to speed it up?

Edit: NVM, I was just too impatient. The job eventually finish.
