Enhance tc_gen to write a matched pair output line type. #1597

Describe the Enhancement

The tc_gen tool currently writes Debug(4) log messages for each pair indicating how it was classified.

(1) HIT:
DEBUG 4: SUI1 20160525_120000 initialization, 51 lead, 20160527_150000 genesis at (28.4, -73.6) is a HIT for BEST 20160527_180000 genesis at (28.3, -74.4).
DEBUG 4: SUI1 20160813_120000 initialization, 36 lead, 20160815_000000 genesis at (8.5, -23.5) is a HIT for CARQ 20160815_120000 genesis at (9.2, -23.7).

(2) MISS:
DEBUG 4: BEST 20160913_060000 genesis at (27.3, -80.2) for 20160908_060000 initialization, 120 lead is a MISS.

(3) FALSE ALARM:
DEBUG 4: SUI1 20160101_000000 initialization, 39 lead, 20160102_150000 genesis at (10.5, -70.9) is a FALSE ALARM.

This task is to provide the option to write this detailed log information to the actual output files by defining a new STAT line type. This is analogous to the RIRW_MPR line type written by TC-Stat. However that line is only written to the log file and not a fully support STAT output line type. Recommend adding a GENESIS_MPR line type that includes the ADECK and BDECK location and timing information and classifies the pair as being a HIT, MISS, FALSE ALARM, or DISCARD (where the discard logic is described by MET #1448).

One compilation is that Stat-Analysis would also need to be enhanced to be able parse this new STAT line type. However, I'd recommend that Stat-Analysis only support the filtering job type for this new line type and nothing else.
