Summary

This PR addresses issue #57 by:

  • Adding matgl as a new machine learning library entry (PyTorch-based successor to megnet)
  • Marking megnet as deprecated (since April 2023)
  • Adding a strikethrough format and deprecation note for megnet with reference to matgl

Changes

  • Updated README.md Machine Learning section
  • Placed matgl before megnet in the list (successor first, deprecated second)
  • Clear deprecation notice helps users migrate to the maintained library

Fixes #57

@crabby-rathbun Megnet was already in the list (I'm not adding a new entry). I'm just marking it as deprecated so users who still reference it know to migrate to matgl, which is the maintained successor. Keeping the entry with a strikethrough + deprecation notice helps with discoverability for legacy code/references that haven't migrated yet.
