10) SMD-P gain equalization , ver 1.1

Goal : predict BSMD-P relative gain corrections for every eta bin 

Method : find average slope per eta slice, fit gauss, determine average slope : avrSlope(iEta)

Gain correction formula is used only for extreme deviations:  

• gainCorr_i = slope_i/avrSlope(iEta),  i =1,..,18,000
• if( fabs(1-gainCorr)<0.10) gainCor=1.0  // do not correct
