Update the ecalLaserCorr filter for the 2016

[mariadalfonso]

Problem discussed in hn https://hypernews.cern.ch/HyperNews/CMS/get/ecal-performance/885/1.html

New cuts from D.Petyt.

1. the EB maximum laser correction can be reduced. There should be no "well-behaved" channels in EB with a correction larger than 2.0
2. the EE maximum laser correction must be increased, given the larger irradiation experienced in 2016. The previous threshold of 8 for the EE laser correction, large as it is, would likely create some false positives in the innermost eta rings of EE if applied to the most recent data.

For RECO, theEcalChannelStatus tag that masks the offending channel in EB for the entire 2016 dataset. In that case, the channel will be suppressed and no additional filter is needed.

This filter will be in the miniAOD and should be applied in analysis using the prompt-reco and in case re-reco doens't happen in favour of a re-miniAOD

For #15609 c94b173

Small adjustment to the ECAL laser correction filter.

#15610 is the 80X version of this PR.

The code change is satisfactory, and Jenkins tests against baseline CMSSW_8_1_X_2016-08-25-1100 show no significant differences.
