  // Parameters :

  //   ipar   : Control parameters:
  //       ipar[0] -> seeding chambers configuration

  //       ipar[2] -> number of track candidates found so far
  //
  // Output :
  //   Number of tracks candidates found.
  // 
  // Detailed description
  //
  // The following steps are performed:
  // 1. Select seeding layers from seeding chambers
  // 2. Select seeding clusters from the seeding AliTRDpropagationLayerStack.
  //   The clusters are taken from layer 3, layer 0, layer 1 and layer 2, in
  //   this order. The parameters controling the range of accepted clusters in
  //   layer 0, 1, and 2 are defined in AliTRDchamberTimeBin::BuildCond().
  // 3. Helix fit of the cluster set. (see AliTRDtrackerFitter::FitRieman(AliTRDcluster**))
  // 4. Initialize seeding tracklets in the seeding chambers.
  // 5. Filter 0.
  //   Chi2 in the Y direction less than threshold ... (1./(3. - sLayer))
  //   Chi2 in the Z direction less than threshold ... (1./(3. - sLayer))
  // 6. Attach clusters to seeding tracklets and find linear approximation of
  //   the tracklet (see AliTRDseedV1::AttachClustersIter()). The number of used
  //   clusters used by current seeds should not exceed ... (25).
  // 7. Filter 1.
  //   All 4 seeding tracklets should be correctly constructed (see
  //   AliTRDseedV1::AttachClustersIter())
  // 8. Helix fit of the seeding tracklets
  // 9. Filter 2.
  //   Likelihood calculation of the fit. (See AliTRDtrackerV1::CookLikelihood() for details)
  // 10. Extrapolation of the helix fit to the other 2 chambers:
  //    a) Initialization of extrapolation tracklet with fit parameters
  //    b) Helix fit of tracklets
  //    c) Attach clusters and linear interpolation to extrapolated tracklets
  //    d) Helix fit of tracklets
  // 11. Improve seeding tracklets quality by reassigning clusters.
  //      See AliTRDtrackerV1::ImproveSeedQuality() for details.
  // 12. Helix fit of all 6 seeding tracklets and chi2 calculation
  // 13. Hyperplane fit and track quality calculation. See AliTRDtrackerFitter::FitHyperplane() for details.
  // 14. Cooking labels for tracklets. Should be done only for MC
  // 15. Register seeds.
