      Use multiple different engines in VMC · 93992b13
      Benedikt Volkel authored
      This is an extension allowing the VMC package to run a simulation
      with multiple different engines at a time. Tracks can be transferred
      among engines during a simulation run based on conditions specified by
      the user.
      
      Important notes on the extensions:
        1) This extension preserves backward-compatibility in the sense that
           user code relying on the former version of VMC is still running
           with the extended version. Was tested with GEANT3_VMC@v2-6 and
           GEANT4_VMC@v3-6-p1.
        2) A shared simulation is only possible when TGeo is used for geometry
           construction and navigation.
        3) A TMCManager singleton object is responsible for handling multiple
           engines and can be obtained on request calling
           TVirtualMCApplication::RequestManager() during construction of the
           user application class.
        4) The introduced TMCParticleStatus objects hold additional
           information to keep track of properties when a track is transferred
           between engines.
        5) When a track is interrupted in one engine to be transferred to
           another, the geometry state is cached in the form of a
           TGeoBranchArray object. It will be used to initialize the navigator
           when this track is picked up for further transport in the next
           engine. This is especially useful/required when a track is
           transferred at a volume boundary in order to be picked up in the
           entered volume and not in the one just left. This is a main reason
           why geometry management is forced to be done via TGeo.
      
      A more comprehensive introduction concerning the usage and
      implementation in the user code can be found in the
      montecarlo/vmc/README.md
      
      Further note:
        This commit also applies the clang format to the modified and new
        files.
