[phenixbb] Grid size in max_entropy maps

Hi Carsten,
Fourier map coefficients calculated from MEM map typically extend to
high resolutions (d_min) ~0.2-0.7A or so:
http://www.phenix-online.org/presentations/mem.pdf
Since map gridding is d_min/4 that in turn means you get very fine
sampling. Cutting back resolution essentially means invalidating MEM
results. phenix.maximum_entropy_map outputs MTZ file with two sets of
map coefficients, original and MEM, so if you load them into Coot you
will get both maps sampled at the same grid so at least visually they
are comparable, and therefore sampling should not be a problem.
Alternatively, I can add an option to phenix.maximum_entropy_map so it
outputs actual MEM map (in CCP4 binary format or in X-plor format). Then
it will have d_min/4 sampling, where d_min is the resolution on input
data set.
