[phenixbb] mlhl refinement

[Thomas C. Terwilliger]

Hi Nat and Florian,

Yes, the overall_best_denmod_map_coeffs.mtz file is really intended only
for drawing maps.  Normally this file has no HL coefficients in it (they
are all zero).  In cases where they do have HL coeffs (obtained with
hl=True) these HL coeffs are after density modification.

As Nat suggests, it is best to use exptl_fobs_phases_freeR_flags.mtz for
refinement. It contains experimental amplitudes and HL coeffs from
experimental phasing only.

All the best,
Tom T
