Do not set properties twice for ApplicationMgr and MessageSvc in the job options

[jmcarcell]

It seems the options service has access to the properties of ApplicationMgr and MessageSvc and that it has had it for a long time. I checked and it's the same properties (podio-dump -c configuration_metadata -d <file>). For the NTupleSvc, since no one seems to be using it (does it even work for us?) I propose to simply remove them.

BEGINRELEASENOTES

• Do not write properties twice for ApplicationMgr and MessageSvc. Do not write any properties for the NTupleSvc
• Construct strings in place instead of using std::stringstream
• Remove an extra ; at the end of each pair of property and value, they are anyway each different strings

ENDRELEASENOTES

Do we have a test that checks that these config options are written properly?

[jmcarcell]

I can add a test but it's not trivial. First, we don't have a defined format, and the current one is a mix of things. I'm not sure about checking exactly the properties that exist now since this can change for example from Gaudi and we have to fix it.

For the format currently everything goes between quotes but this creates cases where the value is a string that is also in quotes: b'TimelineSvc.TimelineFile = "\'timeline.csv\''"\n. We could get rid of the \n character after every parameter since they are already different strings, but then podio-dump won't display them in different lines even though when reading from podio one gets a list.

OK. I think at some point we should add a check to see whether we can run the config that we store.
