      One-Step sim-recon build

Mark showed a screencast of a new method for users to build their own 
version of sim-recon on the JLab CUE. There are two parts:

  * Part 1 <https://youtu.be/xhbXRImfbH8>
  * Part 2 <https://youtu.be/yCcNa7GKoFo>

The script

/group/halld/Software/build_scripts/my_sim-recon_jlab.sh

clones the current master branch of sim-recon and builds it against the 
current default versions of the other pre-requisite packages.
