bsunanda:Run2-hcx49 First attempt of hexagonal geometry for HGCal

[bsunanda]

Tested only for overlaps. Needs lot more work to make it useful for simulation (and then reconstruction)

[cmsbuild]

A new Pull Request was created by @bsunanda for CMSSW_8_0_X.

It involves the following packages:

Geometry/HGCalCommonData

@civanch, @Dr15Jones, @ianna, @mdhildreth, @cmsbuild, @davidlange6 can you please review it and eventually sign? Thanks.
@ghellwig this is something you requested to watch as well.
@Degano you are the release manager for this.

@bsunanda - there are 34 very small overlaps reported by cmsShow. Note, an overlap reported only once per volume copy.

This pull request is fully signed and it will be integrated in one of the next CMSSW_8_0_X IBs (tests are also fine). This pull request requires discussion in the ORP meeting before it's merged. @davidlange6, @Degano, @smuzaffar

i'm surprised that this is changing an existing geometry - hgcal developers do not rely on what was previously in v7 for anything?

[bsunanda]

The earlier v7 was a bit pre-emptive. It was supposed to make ground for this one. The earlier v7 was to define the absorber thickness. The real structure is coming from this.
