[Clas_offline] problem with fastmc

Hello offliners;

Dan has discovered what seems to be a serious bug
in one particular version of fastmc.
For electroproduction of K+ Lambda, he
was getting missing mass resolutions too narrow by
a factor of two.  We think it's because the outgoing
electron's momentum was not being smeared.
I gave him a frozen, hard-wired version of
fastmc (only for the special case of K Lambda) which
he will investigate.

Dan and Kijun will look into this and try to figure out
which version of fastmc is correct and will communicate
this to people.
