Fixes #169. The mismatch between conventions of rotation matrices is resolved by enforcing the parametrisation of arXiv:2007.02985, Eqs. (5) ff.

We implement a new function AdjustRotationMatrix() which calculates the rotation matrix in the parametrisation of the given paper and ensures that the rotation angles are within $-\frac{\pi}{2}$ and $+\frac{\pi}{2}$. This new rotation matrix, saved in the vector HiggsRotationMatrixEnsuredConvention, is then used for the calculation inside TripleHiggsCouplings(). The convention for the rotation matrices and angles as calculated by BSMPT now also agrees with the one used in the ScannerS code.

Additionally, the indices for the mass eigenstates in the rotation matrix are now computed just once for all implemented models inside the respective AdjustRotationMatrix() function (previously, the indices were computed separately in the write() and TripleHiggsCouplings() functions).

General structure of the changes and implementation for the R2HDM by @lisabiermann.
