This commit provides the possibility to inject external choices for configurable params into the MC workflow construction.
This is done by setting up a JSON file, e.g. local_config.json, an by passing this file to the workflow construction with the new
--overwrite-config local_config.json
command line option.This new option allows to conveniently set configurable params from the outside (without having to specify the global list of configurations).
The motivation for this development came from the wish to set the busy time for EMC digitization. This is now possible with the following local_config.json:
Overall, this development scales to all such external settings and avoids adding specific detector-specific command line options in o2dpg_sim_workflow.py.
