Description

We have `DelphesSTDHEP_EDM4HEP`, `DelphesROOT_EDM4HEP` and `DelphesPythia8_EDM4HEP` command-line executables (plus their equivalent with EvtGen interface). It would be interesting to also have `DelphesHepMC3_EDM4HEP`.

There is a starting point (https://github.com/key4hep/k4SimDelphes/blob/main/standalone/src/DelphesHepMCReader.h) which seemed to be faulty (https://github.com/key4hep/k4SimDelphes/issues/33)

Research direction

Start by reviewing standalone/src/DelphesHepMCReader.h and the discussion in issue #33, then compare the existing DelphesSTDHEP_EDM4HEP, DelphesROOT_EDM4HEP, and DelphesPythia8_EDM4HEP executables. Done means a working DelphesHepMC3_EDM4HEP command-line executable, including the equivalent EvtGen interface if applicable.
