I tested all four seeding algorithms with the ITk full chain, and they gave identical printout (eg. performance summary) between this PR and main.
So apart from the logLevel comment, I'm happy with these changes.

[tboldagh]

Re-syncing. Once CI checks out can this be merged? It is needed to continue HT work.

[jahreda]

I was told I should click approve despite me not really being the right reviewer :)

[tboldagh]

@paulgessinger @asalzburger - can you please allow this to be merged. I wait for this before proceeding with making HT example.

[paulgessinger]

Let's go

This PR currently has a merge conflict. Please resolve this and then re-add the automerge label.

[paulgessinger]

@tboldagh this has picked up conflicts unfortunately. Can you resolve them and then we merge ASAP?

[tboldagh]

On it. Seems not to be a small conflict though.

[paulgessinger]

Thanks, let's get it done.

[tboldagh]

Thanks, let's get it done.

It is resolved. But the CI fails on lsf checkout. Can one restart CI somehow?

[paulgessinger]

I think it's a transient failure. I retried the jobs, lets see if they succeed.
