Sensitive detector implementation to record G4 hits in the micromega detectors.
The ProcessHits hook is called by Geant4 if the track enters a sensible Micromega gas gap volume The TouchableHistory is used to deduce the associated readout element and then to identify the concrete gas gap. The hit is then passed to the MuonSensitiveDetector class for event record

Retrieves the readout element matching the Micromega multiplet in which the G4 energy depsoit is taking place.
The sector and the station eta can be deduced from the Touchable history. The actual multiplet is deduced from a distance comparison of the transform in the touchable history and the particular readout elements
| gctx | The Geometry context to fetch the multiplet centers described by the muon readout element |
| touchHist | The touchable history attributed to the G4Track used to identify the Micromega wedge and the associated G4 volume transforms |
The fourth volume is the envelope volume of the NSW station. It will tell us the sector and station eta
av_4375_impr_1_MuonR4::NSW_SM2_StationMuonStation_pv_9_NSW_SM2_Station_-2_1
Find the Detector element from the Identifier
retrieve the translation of the transformation going into the current current gasVolume
Let's use the position of the first gasGap in the second quad as a reference. If the absolute z value is smaller than its z value the hit must be located in quad number one

Returns the last snap shot of the traversing particle.
The G4 track must have stepped through the same volume. Otherwise, a nullptr is returned
| gasGapId | Identifier of the gasGap to consider |
| hitStep | Pointer to the current step |
There's only a snapshot if the last saved hit has the same Identifier & the same particle Link + G4Track Id

Checks whether the current step shall be processed at all.
I.e. the particle needs to be charged, there's a minimum velocity needed and the step length must not vanish

Records the G4Step in the sim hit.
Hits are usually expressed at the center point of the step. Except for low-energy electrons where the endpoint of the random walk path is just extended
| hitId | Identifier of the gas gap or the tube in which the hit is recorded |
| toGaGap | Transform from the ATLAS global coordinates into the sensitive volume |
| hitStep | Step from which the particle's information and the pre and post step positions are fetched |
Fetch the step end-points
Hit direction as the momentum direction
Electrons randomly work through the gas instead of drifting through the gas -> take the prestep of the first snap shop inside the gas as pre step point

Saves the current Step as a xAOD::MuonSimHit snapshot.
