This PR is to merge a noncollinear functional ensemble NCXC programmed by Xiaoyu Zhang into ABACUS. NCXC is based on the multi-collinear approach published on PHYSICAL REVIEW RESEARCH 5, 013036 (2023). This ensemble can currently support LDA and GGA and can be elaborated to mGGA and hybrid functional in the future.

which paper should be site?

Why do you add so many "include" but not use them?
