      Parameters to optionally correct small ENGINE DC hit handling errors. · 6a33dcf3

         {prefix}dc_fix_lr
              Historically, in the ENGINE, if a hit is used in multiple
              space points/stubs, the left/right assignment for that hit, which
              is later used in track fitting, is that assigned for the last stub
              encountered with that hit.  Properly, the left right assignment
              should be allowed to be different in different space points.  If
              this parameter is set to zero (e.g. in hcana.param), then the
              ENGINE behavior is used.  For new analyses, it should be set to one.
              (Which is the default)
         {prefix}dc_fix_propcorr
              When a hit gets put into a stub, the distance of the hit from the
              discriminator can then be estimated.  In the engine, a correction to
              the drift time (and thus drift distance) is applied.  However, if
              that hit ends up in another stub, the correction will get applied again,
              resulting in a over correction.  Setting this flag to 1 will give that
              hit a different corection for each stub that it is in.
      
      These flags will default to the new "correct" way of handling hits if
      the above parameters are not set in a parameter file.  Currently, both
      flags are set to zero in hcana.param to replicate the ENGINE behavior.
      
      To implement these changes, the propagation correction and L/R information
      for each hit is saved in space point and track classes.  This information
      is still saved in the hit class, but only used if in ENGINE compatibility
      mode.
      
      The THcDCTrack class now saves a list of space point pointers instead
      of space point indices.
      
      The AddSpacePoint method now also copies all the hit information into
      the track object so that THcDC doesn't need to explicitely copy all
      the hits.
      
      The FindStub method, which fits a stub track to a space point is passed
      the space point rather than a list of hits

      Replicate ENGINE tracking better. · 818bd894

      1.  nplusminus was not initialized corectly so small angle approximation
      was never used.
      2.  Change MAXTRACKS from 50 to 10 to match ENGINE.
