Refine RuInfo payload inspector

[mmusich]

PR description:

The goal of this PR is two-fold

1. first: is to improve the graphical appearance of the output of the RunInfoParameters plotting class. This now contains human readable run start and end times as well as small descriptor if the payload is valid, invalid or fake.
2. second: at the moment, the trend plots of values vs run-number (e.g. RunInfoBFieldHistory) are polluted by fake payloads which in production are interposed between valid ones. In order to discard them in plotting a hack in CondCore/Utilities/interface/PayloadInspector.h has been introduced in order to treat the case in which the return type of getFromPayload is a std::pair<bool, float>, where the boolean stores the information whether the payload is fake or not.

PR validation:

This a graphical display with this script of the output of running the command:

getPayloadData.py --plugin pluginRunInfo_PayloadInspector --plot plot_RunInfoBFieldHistory --tag runinfo_31X_hlt --time_type Run --iovs '{"start_iov": "312000", "end_iov": "312260"}' --db Prod --test ;

with this branch and the master branch, showing how the fake payloads are epurated.
