FTRM Through-going Muon Monte Carlo Summary bank. One for each Monte Carlo event

5.01 C. Kyba First version.
Description
-----------
This bank contains Monte Carlo information about the generated muon
and a mask which indicates which particles were produced as the muon
travelled through SNO. This bank should only be checked when running
single muons in SNO (ie. there is no support for multiple generated
muons).

Note: Any status bit parameters are defined to work with bit functions such as
IAND and BTEST.

1) This is not the actual generation energy, but instead the energy at the
end of the first vertex. If it is ever necessary to update get the true
generation energy it is suggested that a word be added to bank_mcgn.
2) This is the energy lost between the first vertex inside of 850cm and the
first vertex outside of 850cm, divided by the distance between the two
vertices. If the muon starts inside the detector then the first vertex is
the generation vertex, and if the muon stops inside the detector then the
second vertex is the final muon vertex.
