transparency of the optimization #8

The actual version of gmx2qmmm is missing the information of all steps of a optimization. There should be at least the possibility to save them during the optimization and store them as a compressed folder. Is not this information necessary for restarting/continue a calculation at a certain checkpoint ?

In qmmm file, optlastonly is the parameter that determines to keep steps files or not. In the latest version in branch p3, the compressed tar file function is added.

if optlastonly = yes, the output will only remain the last information of optimization, which is the default setting. if optlastonly = no, the output will remain all steps of optimization. Besides the last step, all information will be archived as tar files.

The optlastonly in qmmm parameter was changed to _printlevel, a better name for parameter. if _printlevel = normal, the output will only remain the last information of optimization, which is the default setting. if _printlevel = full, the output will remain all steps of optimization. Besides the last step, all information will be archived as tar files. Please see the details in https://gmx2qmmm.github.io/gmx2qmmm_io/input_params/input_params
