Directory split strategy

Seperates inputdata files into different subjobs based on full path to lowest directory in LFN path and file size or number of files restrictions.

Example: /alice/cern.ch/user/j/jalien/inputdatafile --> /alice/cern.ch/user/j/jalien

Example JDL:

User = "jalien";
JobTag = {
"Directory split!"
};
Packages = {
"VO_ALICE@O2Physics::daily-20241202-0000-1"
};
Executable = "/alice/cern.ch/user/j/jalien/bin/splitting.sh";
InputDataCollection = "LF:/alice/cern.ch/user/j/jalien/inputdatafileCollection.xml,nodownload";
Split = "directory";
Optional flags in JDL:
SplitMaxInputFileNumber
SplitMaxInputFileSize
