Support 2D bandstructures

Would be great if eg a graphene band structure worked out of the box (without manual kpoint path selection)

FWIW Brillouin already has paths for the plane groups: basically it just needs a 2D basis instead of a 3D basis.

#555 implements this using Brillouin and a user-specified space group (which for 2D lattices spglib cannot yet determine automatically)
