// Molecular replacement of a predicted model (rugnux --af-model, experimental): a global
// search for the model's orientation and position in the cell, so that a model with no placement of
// its own - an AlphaFold prediction - can be scored against the data, and the space groups the data
// cannot tell apart can be scored against it.
//
//  - The model: residues with pLDDT < 70 removed, B-factors from pLDDT, hydrogens dropped.
//  - Rotation: a uniform sampling of the point group's rotation ASU, each orientation scored by the
//    correlation of the observed E^2 with the model's own symmetry-summed |F|^2 - read off the
//    model's molecular transform, computed once by FFT and interpolated per orientation.
//  - Translation: the full-symmetry translation function on one FFT per orientation and space group.
//  - Further copies, one at a time, as many as the cell can hold: the translation function again with
//    the copies already placed as a known partial structure, each new copy refined against the others.
//  - Rescoring: the best placements through the rigid body, bulk solvent, R-free, a packing check
//    against the symmetry mates and a null of the same model in random orientations.
//
// The rotation and translation functions, the rigid body and the structure factors the R-factors are
// taken on run on the GPU where there is one, and on the CPU otherwise; the same functions either way.
