PHCASeeding seed volume mitigation update

[petermic]

Types of changes

• Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
• New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
• Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to not work for users)
• Requiring change in macros repository (Please provide links to the macros pull request in the last section)
• I am a member of GitHub organization of sPHENIX Collaboration, EIC, or ECCE (contact Chris Pinkenburg to join)

What kind of change does this PR introduce? (Bug fix, feature, ...)

These updates to the PHCASeeding module greatly reduce the number of seeds produced by the TPC seeding process, which in turn greatly improves the runtime of PHSimpleKFProp in exchange for a slight increase in the runtime of PHCASeeding.

A summary of the details and some low-statistics test results were presented at the March 7 tracking meeting (https://indico.bnl.gov/event/26195/).
