[Wien] Ambiguity in instructions for XPS/XAS/TELNES

I think there is a slightly ambiguity for spin-polarized cases in the UG. I
don't see mention that one has to carefully setup case.incup/case.incdn for
the core hole (or fractional hole). From what I can see it does not seem
like this is an issue in the later calculations, but I think it is easy for
someone to inadvertantly calculate a spin-unresolved for for a spin case.

N.B., for my own sanity, it would be nice if someone could confirm that
xtelnes/xspec don't really care about the occupancies in case.inc, just an
adequate list of states.
