38. For a precise estimation of the uncorrelated background, we require that a (Formula presented) candidate should not be in the signal region when we artificially flip the lepton momentum vector.

43. The result for (Formula presented) quoted in Ref. 11 was updated with an improved treatment of the background fraction.
44. The errors originating from the flavor tagging and from the resolution function differ slightly, after a further investigation, from the values quoted in Ref. 11. The total systematic error is unchanged.
