    Correctly read/write CONECT in PDB files - Thanks Simon Sun · d0f67460
    Studer Gabriel authored
    Simon found issues when reading and writing CONECT statements
    in PDB io and provided code to fix it. yay
    
    Reading: OpenStructure did not read CONECT statements at all. By default,
    it still doesnt. Many PDB files out there don't provide these
    statements and we really don't want to rely on them. We rather want
    to assign connectivity based on the chemical component dictionary from
    the PDB. However, a valid use case are novel compounds that are not
    in the component dictionary. Reading connect statements can now be
    enabled in the pdb reader through the IOProfile. This may give issues
    in processing after reading. OpenStructure implements processors that
    are responsible for connectivity. Now that we build some of the
    connectivity already at the reading stage, this might cause trouble.
    To remedy most of the nightmares that can come out of that, the
    processors can now optionally skip connectivities between Hetatoms.
    
    Writing: That was a plain bug when writing CONECT statements for
    bond orders > 1.
