[11.3.X] Miscellaneous fixes to Alignment/OfflineValidation all-in-one tool

[mmusich]

backport of #34876

PR description:

The goal of this PR is to fix some miscelleanous mistakes in the all-in-one template configurations introduced since the last alignment campaigns (commit 1ef8f92).
I profit of the PR to enhance the unit test to check at compilation time the soundness of the python configuration produced by the test themselves (commit 90127b5).

PR validation:

Run the Alignment/OfflineValidation unit tests via scram b runtests

if this PR is a backport please specify the original PR and why you need to backport that PR:
