[Wannier] projection choosen for MoS2

[JinLuo Cheng]

Dear Xi,

Yes, Aron is right. It should be 7 highest valence bands and 4 lowest 
conduction bands. His suggestions are very likely the reason why you got 
those big spreads after 2000 steps (usually my max iter step is set as 
200).

Beside, if you are also using ABINIT, you need to turn on the option
          w90iniprj 2
and also turn on the guild centre option in Wannier90  :
          guiding_centres = TRUE
to use the beginning projection.

Best,
JinLuo
