[Q-e-developers] time format

Hello,
		during very long calculations there may happen something like this:

      total cpu time spent up to now is 997292.12 secs

      total energy              =    -371.93899717 Ry
....
      total cpu time spent up to now is ********* secs

I suggest changing the format F9.2 to F9.1 or even better F10.1 (0.01 s have 
little significance anyway).

Note that this format occurs in 3 routines:
c_bands.f90
electrons.f90
non_scf.f90
which in itself is not an especially recommendable programming practice:
maybe a common format would be preferable?

Thanx!
