/*
 * Mask isolation quantities in PFTau objects
 *
 * The masking is one by collecting HCAL and ECAL PF objects in cones about the
 * charged hadrons associated to the tau.  The HCAL and ECAL objects are then
 * eaten, (HCAL first, ordered by DR from track), until the total associated
 * calo energy is within maxSigmas standard deviations of the track energy.
