blastMC, TDC for Wire Chamber

Hello People,

        I have just modified blastmc so that the wire chamber
digitization can be common start or common stop, and so
you can set the drift time in the input file (fort.3*)

        The new line, which is optional, is
        (common start)

WTDC (drift velocity)

        so
        TDC = (drift velocity)*(distance)

        or (common stop)

WTDC (off-set) (drift velocity)

        so
        TDC = (off-set) - (drift velocity)*(distance)

        The units of velocity are TDC channels / cm.
