Implemented new loopers external generator based on the previous one (still available): the number of loopers is now adapted to the time interval between one event and the other with a reference set through a parameter in the external gen. The reference loopers number is assigned to the calculated average time interval and a ratio is performed to adjust the loopers event by event. The loopers time is set via a Uniform distribution via a new generateEvent function.

The output from the generator can be found /alice/cern.ch/user/m/mgiacalo/selfjobs/LoopersFlatGasNewExtMean500-20250808-124127. The TPC clusters of this output were processed and they are available here /alice/cern.ch/user/m/mgiacalo/selfjobs/ProcessLoopersNewGenMean500-20250808-141601.
A flat average of ~10% of loopers clusters is achieved with the default configuration provided by this PR, as shown in the following time plot (in TPC cluster time units).
