Tuning and Online-Monitor

[YannickDieter]

This PR adds:

• noise tuning and a noise occ. scan for Mimosa26 telescope.
• dedicated online monitor is now available with a 'generic' hit correlator (basically any DUT can now be correlated with each other).
• python3 support

Fixes issue #7, #18.
Related to #12, #10.

I dont know why travis status is not shown, but for Python3 travis passes. For python2 the unit tests for the online monitor fail.
This is due to the fact that the Tabs (in the online monitor) for the Hit Correlator and DUT Receiver are at different positions when using python2 or python3. At the moment they are recognized by their index (see here), which makes it impossible to test it for both python versions at the same time.

@DavidLP Do you know more about that? The .yaml config file is stored on alphabetically order for both versions. In case of python3 the Tabs will be sorted in that way. For python2 it is the other way around.

In principle I am done with that MR.

One thing which needs to be discussed is, if we want to move the hit_correlator (which is now generic and can correlate DUTs from differnt input data streams) to our silab_online_monitor repo. In my opinion we should do that. What do you think? @laborleben @themperek @DavidLP

@YannickDieter One cannot rely on the sorting of a python dictionary. Here is why: https://portingguide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/dicts.html

@DavidLP @YannickDieter Pushed a fix for the online-monitor addressing failing test: SiLab-Bonn/online_monitor#17

[laborleben]

@YannickDieter Fixed.

[YannickDieter]

@laborleben Thanks for fixing that! I guess it is now finally ready to merge.

One more question: Why do your commits have a travis status, but my commits do not show any travis status?

[laborleben]

@YannickDieter Can you check the boxes of issue #10?

[YannickDieter]

So far only the local thresholds (A, B, C, D) are tuned. Nevertheless I would just merge it, I will add the missing features later. Unfortunately I could never really test the tuning during testbeam..

[laborleben]

@YannickDieter @DavidLP Should we use this opportunity to update the pyBAR_mimosa26_interpreter package name?

[YannickDieter]

Yes, in my opinion we should do that! Since a long time this is now on my ToDo list..
