[Wien] localization of Mn t2g orbital

Dear Shamik Chakrabarti,

the problem can be solved with the QTL program, but some effort is needed. 
QTL allows calculation of the density matrix with the 'user defined 
unitary transformation'. If you define the unitary matrix, so that it has 
zeros in the eg-states block, you'll get the orbital potential needed.
Another problem is that in run_lapw -orb script the LAPWDM and not QTL is 
used. As a result you'll have to modify also this script.

Regards
Pavel Novak
