Briefly, what does this PR introduce?

Updated LFHCAL ADC params from the digitization table from 10/2.

Threshold on the ADC level:
0.3 MeV deposition --> adc = 50 + 0.3 / 1000 * 65536 == 70 --> thresholdValue = 20

Peter Steinberg stated that the thresholdFactor should be set to zero and the thresholdValue should be 20 (ADC counts) because 0.35 MeV already incorporates the necessary sampling. I verified that the updates in FHCAL.cc concur with this information and have approved the commit.
