Adds a check to reject TPC-only tracks from V0 building via the strangeness builder helper. Controlled by the last buildV0candidate parameter, with default behaviour being reject.

Crucially, this rejects 80-90% of aod::V0s in high-IR pp because of the way we store V0s with at least one TPC-only track: we duplicate V0s many times (up to 20x) in different collisions, and having this overlooked when doing traditional (K0/Lambda) building could introduce unwanted CPU usage and, in the worst case, spurious background in large quantity.

Tagging also @mpuccio as this will directly impact current trigger code as well even if the change is not in the EventFiltering directory. Hope this helps and happy easter!
