[Brahms-dev-l] brat 2.24.2

Hello,

new brat version 2.24.2, tag BRAT-2-24-2

Changes : mostly in modules/track/combine 

* DC enhancement stuff 
  corrected non standard behavior of module
  
* global tracking modules (FFS, BFS, MRS and full FS)
  the Event method of internal BrModuleMatchTrack submodules were never 
  called (only CombineFrontBack). Now fixed. This fixes another issue for 
  some BFS procedure where matched tracks should be stored in the output 
  node into BrDataTables. I therefore removed KeepMatch in the BFS module.
  Use instead BrModuleMatchTrack::SetStoreTracks(kTRUE) in your scripts 
  and don't forget to look for the right table name : instead of e.g.
  "MatchedT3T4", look for "MatchedTrack T3_T4".

* removed old hack where things are looked up in both the input node and 
  output node in case of failure in the input node. For this kind of 
  things, there is the BrAppendContainer module. It works fine and should 
  be added to the main module early in the module chain (but this is 
  old story here).

* In BrModuleMatchTrack, I make a special case for MRS : the matching 
  offsets and widths are now evaluated for positive and negative momenta 
  separately. If you save the stuff into an ascii file (like the official 
  reco jobs do), there are now two lines of parameters that can be read 
  back by the module. For the other spectrometer, no change. Note that 
  these changes are internal and should not affect existing scripts but if 
  you happen to read an old offset file for MRS (1 line only), it won't 
  work. So update your stuff (I guess I'm the one only right now using 
  these things but who knows ... )

* BB vertex module : preference is given to the vertex reconstructed with 
  all tubes IF the method UseAllAsBest() is called in your bratmain 
  script. This method is temporary because there is right now no vtx 
  offset revision for the 200 GeV data when using all BB tubes. This 
  method is ok for the 63 GeV only but it's gonna change soon. 

There night be some other changes but they are minor and should not affect 
anything serious. 

All these changes are improvements for the official reconstruction. They 
have been tested using official scripts. When bramreco can benefit from 
this version of brat, I will redo the whole 63 GeV data (gtr and dst). 

Note that right before I updated brat, Hiro committed some stuff. I don't 
know what it was about, DB related I guess.
