Update SiStrip Miscalibration Tools [10.2.X]

[mmusich]

Greetings,
this PR is meant to update/ add tools used for the creation of Strip conditions for simulation, starting from existing payloads in database.

• SiStripChannelGainFromDBMiscalibrator: reads APV gains (either G1 or G2) from DB and applies hierarchically a scale factor and/or gaussian smearing for each APV gain, down to the individual layer or disk level.
• SiStripNoisesFromDBMiscalibrator : reads Noise from DB and applies hierarchically a scale factor and/or gaussian smearing for each APV gain, down to the individual layer or disk level.

Code has been refactored to avoid duplication, moving common methods to an helper file; in addition the configuration and existing documentation have been updated.

This pull request is fully signed and it will be integrated in one of the next master IBs (tests are also fine). This pull request will now be reviewed by the release team before it's merged. @davidlange6, @slava77, @smuzaffar, @fabiocos (and backports should be raised in the release meeting by the corresponding L2)
