Fix B tag calibrations

[watson-ij]

This is a high-effort task, probably we want to involve a one person from each of the groups.

Daniel, Yechan, can you point to the documentation so we can get people up to speed?

I am pretty sure that this is the b-tagging method that we are currently trying to use

some additional materials

Or maybe https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/CMS/BTagSFMethods also

[watson-ij]

Theres also python code in nanoAOD-tools that seems to deal with this, its really ugly though:

BTag weights now come as an event weight with the nanoAOD root files in v5 of the productions
variable: btagWeight_CSVV2

[watson-ij]

What about uncertainties?

[SangMLee]

they're not in the root file
Does that mean we are unable to use the ones in the root file ?

[watson-ij]

I assume its calculated correctly, but to do systematics we will need to get the uncertainties so we probably still need to implement it anyway

is this finished? can we close?
