[12.4.X] Fix to "Update SiStrip and TkAlignment ALCARECO event content for Run3"

[mmusich]

backport of #38590

PR description:

Unfortunately PR #38416 aimed to update the event content of the input ALCARECO event contents to use S/W FED 1023 information instead of SCAL for all the relevant SiStrip and TkAlignment alcas contained two bugs:

• in python, when a variable A is assigned to another variable B, if an operation is done on B, the attributes of A are changed as well. This has resulted in applying the removal of the content of the _run3_common_removedCommands list even for eras <= Run2.
• the ConfigBuilder uses the *_noDrop version of the ALCARECO event content to build the list of products to keep, so the instructions gated via the run3_common modifier were not effective.

cmssw/Configuration/Applications/python/ConfigBuilder.py

Line 1298 in 36d3f6f

self.executeAndRemember('process.ALCARECOEventContent.outputCommands.extend(process.OutALCARECO'+shortName+'_noDrop.outputCommands)')

As a result of the two bugs, the list of event products to be kept is now wrong for all eras.
This PR resolves the issue.

PR validation:

Test running:

runTheMatrix.py -l 1000.0, 136.874, 138.4 --ibeos

and checked the event content of the SiStripCalMinBias ALCARECO file, in order to test the Run1, Run2 and Run3 eras.
In addition I've also produced ALCARECO data, starting from RAW and the ConfigDP machinery using the command:

python3 Configuration/DataProcessing/test/RunExpressProcessing.py --nThreads 8 --scenario ppEra_Run3 --global-tag 124X_dataRun3_Express_v3 --lfn root://eoscms.cern.ch//eos/cms/tier0/store/data//Run2022A/MinimumBias/RAW/v1/000/352/929/00000/18df5589-67c8-45e5-ac84-7fd2472de50a.root --fevt --dqmio --alcarecos SiStripCalMinBias

and obtained the right event content:

• test pass, the event content is correct now

[cmsbuild]

This pull request is fully signed and it will be integrated in one of the next CMSSW_12_4_X IBs (tests are also fine) and once validation in the development release cycle CMSSW_12_5_X is complete. This pull request will now be reviewed by the release team before it's merged. @perrotta, @dpiparo, @qliphy (and backports should be raised in the release meeting by the corresponding L2)
