TrackBase & HitPattern redesign discussed on the RECO meeting of 08/05/2014

Documentation about the changes:

Need to reset the newObj hitPattern_ here, so that we have a consistent output if the same method is called multiple times. I added printouts and it looks like the call happens at least 4 times for the same object when using Scan in an interactive root session
