The AsymptoticCalculator performed all its fits in a local helper that saved a RooFitResult only to read off the minimum NLL value and then discarded it. Users therefore had no way to check programmatically whether the underlying fits actually converged, even though the calculator happily reports a significance also when they did not. Keep the RooFitResult objects of the four fits (unconditional and conditional, on observed and Asimov data) as members of the calculator and expose them with the new getters GetFitResultUncondObs(), GetFitResultCondObs(), GetFitResultUncondAsimov() and GetFitResultCondAsimov(). The results are now saved also when the minimization failed, so that the minimizer status and EDM of a non-converged fit can be inspected. The stored unconditional results are updated when GetHypoTest() finds a better minimum in its refit fallback. Also document in the class description that the fits can already be steered via the ROOT::Math::MinimizerOptions defaults for strategy and tolerance, which was the second request in the ticket. Closes JIRA [ROOT-10066](https://its.cern.ch/jira/browse/ROOT-10066). 🤖 Done with the help of AI
