[13.2.X] Fix StandaloneTrackerTopology and providing unit tests

[mmusich]

backport of #43059

PR description:

In #43020 (comment) it was noticed that one of the pixel payload inspector tests was very noisy.
In #43020 (comment) is was elucidated that the reason can be traced back to this commit 5af9d66, that - while supplying in TrackerTopology the provision to distinguish in the Phase-2 IT barrel layer 1 two sensors per module - at the same time (since the change in the meaning of the bit masks was not propagated to StandaloneTrackerTopology) it also created a bug in all the clients that at that point started to silently fail correctly parsing the topology from XML.
This is fixed in commit 3e07a3c.
In this PR I also provide a unit test, to avoid future possible mismatches between the two mechanisms 0373242, as well as some other miscellaneous improvements in the Pixel Payload Inspector suite that were useful during debugging.

PR validation:

Relies on the newly created unit test, scram b runtests_CalibTrackerStandaloneTrackerTopologyTestDriver which runs fine with this PR.

If this PR is a backport please specify the original PR and why you need to backport that PR. If this PR will be backported please specify to which release cycle the backport is meant for:

Verbatim backport of #43059 to the release in which the problem in description first occurrred.

This pull request is fully signed and it will be integrated in one of the next CMSSW_13_2_X IBs (tests are also fine) and once validation in the development release cycle CMSSW_13_3_X is complete. This pull request will now be reviewed by the release team before it's merged. @rappoccio, @antoniovilela, @sextonkennedy (and backports should be raised in the release meeting by the corresponding L2)
