[phenixbb] Preferred treatment of residues with no electron density

Hello,
Personally, this is what I do: if there is for example a missing surface
loop that I cannot build then there will be no atoms in the model but
header cards to describe this. Otherwise, I know the "missing" residues
are there so that I leave them at full occupancy and let the temperature
factors climb to best model the poor/missing electron density.
This is what makes most sense to me. I know others do things differently.
