[Wien] Confusion on starting prec 2 after prec 1 on the same struct file.

Actually, it is strongly recommended to use the previously converged 
density  (init -prec 2 -nodstart), except when RMTs were .gt. 2.3 bohr.

In this case the RMTs get reduced to 2.3 and the old clmsum files cannot 
be used.

I'll probably modify init_lapw such that the reduction of the RMTs can 
be avoided (the HDLOs usually do a good job in reducing a possible 
linearization error).
