ESMD pedestal cross check update

  Qinghua and I found a debug in the StADCMaker.cxx. I should use the class "strip" not "hitstrip" to get the raw ADC distribution.

Some AuAu7 event images

 Using st_physics_adc_11119033_raw_2500001, I created event display images from the first few events in the file (after deactivating some voltage=0 entries in the tpcAnodeHVavg table and
