fix: Robust perigee propagation in HelicalTrackLinearizer

[andiwand]

This fixes another case where the overstepping tolerance bites us from behind. Perigee surfaces are prone to the issue of bad path length estimation so we need a special treatment.

discovered in #2917

Can we synchronize this with my vertexing changes? I'm changing how the linearizer calls into the propagation.

Sure this is not in a rush. I fear that this is conflicting with your changes and I am not sure how to best resolve that yet

blocked by vertexing refactor atm

@paulgessinger I fear something broke in the physmon monitoring https://github.com/acts-project/acts/actions/runs/8204327988 failed but is flagged as green

[paulgessinger]

@andiwand i think the job that should update the content just didn't run (yet?)
