... above efermi. If the code is compiled with HDF5 (since I do not
want to get into bands text file parsing) and numbands is not set to all
a parameter bands_energy_above_fermi can be given in the
wf_parameters input to give a target energy. Then the numbands
parameter is adjusted until either

  1. The highest band minimum of the bandstructure is above the target
  2. The given numbands has no more effect on the bands calculated
    Meaning it's essentially equivalent to all

TODO:

  • A regression test for this should be relatively easy
