Add from_space_group() class method to PointGroup
Feature Requested
References PR #3859 , specifically https://github.com/materialsproject/pymatgen/pull/3859#discussion_r1626142699
A class method from_space_group() will be added to the PointGroup class to instantiate point groups that belong to the 32 crystal classes from a SpaceGroup symbol. This will also resolve inhomogeneous symmetry notations (Schoenflies and Hermann Mauguin) within one SpaceGroup object or a dataset. https://github.com/materialsproject/pymatgen/blob/163cc01e0251525f5ab8f48776511411754012a9/pymatgen/symmetry/groups.py#L232
Proposed Solution
Will be implemented in PR #3859 .
