Definition:
Data items in the ATOM_SITES_ORTHO category record
details about the orthogonalized functions defined to solve
correlation problems during the refinement of the modulation
parameters when the atomic domain of a given atom is restricted
by a Crenel function (see Petricek et al., 2016).
The functions are constructed selecting Fourier harmonics
until a desired degree of orthogonality and completeness is
reached (see_atom_site_occ_special_func.crenel_ortho_eps).
