Iurii Timrov e473bc92e4 Changed examples 6 and 7 in HP from LiCoO2 to Ni2MnGa,
because putting U on O-2p states is questionable.
It is better to avoid providing examples with U on O-2p.

The calculation of Hubbard parameters using hp.x is based on 
density-functional perturbation theory (DFPT):
I. Timrov, N. Marzari and M. Cococcioni, 
"Hubbard parameters from density-functional perturbation theory", 
Phys. Rev. B 98, 085127 (2018); arXiv:1805.01805

The DFPT approach (as the linear-response cDFT approach) has a limitation: 
it is applicable only to open-shell systems. For more details see 
K. Yu and E.A. Carter, J. Chem. Phys. 140, 121105 (2014).

Self-consistent calculation of Hubbard parameters can be performed using DFPT 
with the same strategy as explained in H. Hsu et al., Phys. Rev. B 79, 125124 (2009).
