Feature #1025
end_paths and trigger_paths are now unnecessary and should be retired.
0%
Description
These items can be constructed internally now given our ability to identify modules as producer, filter, analyzer or output. We can also detect whether a module labeled as a trigger_path item actually an end_path item and vice versa. We should implement this and remove the need for users to compose these lines explicitly.

end_paths and trigger_paths are no longer required due to commit 9a33fc91e2a9f0047cdb50d990cd4fe6fab6f529, but are honored if specified. However, experiments have stated that they wish to be able to easily disable "standard" paths included from other FHiCL files by simply omitting the path from the trigger_paths or end_paths parameters. It is therefore unlikely that the specification of these parameters will become an error in the future (although the proposed @erase FHiCL directive would also fulfill this requirement).
