Independent of #229.

This PR prevents the writing of reactions in which the parent and daughter are the same out to the DSV for ALARAJOYWrapper. As it stands, MT = 2 (elastic neutron scattering) is already excluded, but because we have processing to force isomers lacking decay data to ground, those reactions are effectively creating new pathways for elastic scattering. To reduce the size of the processed DSV file (and subsequent tree files), these reactions can be excluded entirely.
