Pixel updates

[clelange]

During the switch from CVS to git a large part of the pixel code additions which are needed for the pixel online software and also calibration of the pixel detector were forgotten to be added to a release and only ended up in the CVS head. These changes should be in CMSSW_5_3_X and later (pull requests will follow for CMSSW_7_X_Y).

@clelange do you still need this for 53X?

[clelange]

Yes, would be nice to have, since 5_3_X is still the standard for some systems in the CMS online cluster.

[mmusich]

@cmsbuild please test

[cmsbuild]

The tests are being triggered in jenkins.
