Reduce the ECAL and HCAL GPU memory usage [12.5.x]

[fwyzard]

PR description:

Allocate memory buffers based on the actual number of events, instead of always allocating the maximum size.

Update the HLT menus to remove the obsolete parameters, if they are present.

Reduces the total GPU memory from running the HLT with 4 jobs with 32 threads and 32 streams by about 25%:

release	total	reserved	used	free
CMSSW_12_4_9	15360 MB	449 MB	10678 - 10090 MB	4231 - 4819 MB
with #39580	15360 MB	449 MB	7366 - 8056 MB	7543 - 6853 MB

Thanks to @VinInn for finding the issue and for the changes.

PR validation:

The full HLT menu runs on GPU (with 12.4.9 plus #39580) without issues.
