Could we remove the EvFOutputModule module declaration?

[smorovic]

We don't want to remove it, as it intended as a "primary" name of the module.

The ShmStreamConsumer (which is how the old shared-memory based output module was named) is added only due to request of TSG for supporting HLT menus generated by ConfDB. This definition is going to be removed when a new ConfDB version that doesn't have this output module name hardcoded becomes ready (reportedly in early 2015). In the meantime we want to allow configurations to be built using the new name, in fact it is already used in setups like daq2val.
