Drop type specs in modifiers under Validation/RecoParticleFlow and some cleanup

[hatakeyamak]

PR description:

This PR drops type specs in Validation/RecoParticleFlow. It also removes some obsolete files which we think are not longer used.

Also, I used this opportunity to clean-up folder naming/organization a little bit.

RecoParticleFlow/SlimmedMuonValidation
->
RecoParticleFlow/slimmedMuonValidation

and

RecoParticleFlow/ElectronValidation/JetPtRes
->
RecoParticleFlow/PFJetValidation/JetPtRes

PR validation:

cd runTheMatrix.py -l limited seems to run ok.

if this PR is a backport please specify the original PR and why you need to backport that PR:

not backport.

@hatakeyamak just to confirm: Slimmed -> slimmed is intentional and not a typo, right?

[hatakeyamak]

It's intentional, as all other 'slimmed` folder started with a lower case.
I added it in the PR description.
