giannozz f10901cc4a Indices of k+G for all k-points (igk_k) moved from module "realus" to a less
illogical place: module "klist" containing information on k-points. Number 
of plane waves npw_k merged into pre-existing variable ngk. 
Important notes:
- in PWscf only the real-space calculation of <beta|psi> used those variables.
  It should still work but I haven't tested it
- in all other QE packages, only TDDFPT was using those variables. I made them
  pointing to the new ones. It seems to work, but please check
- any other code using those variables should be updated accordingly
- the file with indices (unit iunigk) is still written and it is still used, 
  but it is going to disappear soon: there is no longer any valid reason 
  not to store indices in memory

This module uses subroutines from PW and PH along with the general infrasturcture provided by
Quantum Espresso. 

The directory TDDFPT must reside immediately under the espresso directory for Makefiles to work. 

Standart compilation: Run "make tddfpt" in espresso directory where TDDFPT is a subdirectory
 
Directory Structure: 
bin      : The tddfpt related binaries
src      : The source files
Doc      : The manual
Examples : Examples and tests. If you run make under this subdirectory
           a full test is initiated (requires tddfpt to be compiled first).
           You can also perform a shorter test by "make small_test". Each example has its
           own seperate Makefile. Please refer to the README under this subdirectory for
           further information. 
tools    : Various tools:
           1) The postprocessing code for calculating absorption spectrum and polarizabilities.
           2) A script to recover reduced liouvillian in a format comprehensible to postprocessing
              code from the stdout.
