Make CORSIKA 8 fast again

Currently we are 10-15 times slower than CORSIKA 7. After discussing with Felix we believe that this is caused by calling SIBYLL for event generation with N or O targets instead of "air" as in C7 and certain tabulated cross-sections are then not used within SIBYLL itself. The preferred solution requires some SIBYLL-internal changes since we probably don't want to go back to the way it was done in C7.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
