Description

@kirk0830

Background

this feature is requested by other developers.

Describe the solution you'd like

ther is already a disabled keyword test_symmetry and its corresponding functionality. if this keyword is assigned, then the symm_ops will be printed in running log. I will rename it to cal_symm_matrepr, then if given as 1, in running log file the symmetry operations' matrix representations will be printed. Additionally I will also support a second parameter to control its precision. It's default value would be 3, in alignment with other out_ flags.
