Extract chemical formulas, stability measure, identifier from all NOMAD entries excluding certain periodic elements

@mscheidgen @laurih @acarnevali For the stability measures, one option might be to train an ML model on a large database of formation energies, predict the formation energies for NOMAD materials, and use a phase diagram tool to calculate the decomposition energy (or similarly, energy above hull) based on the predicted formation energies, similar to what’s described in DOI: 10.1002/adma.202005112. Then use e_above_hull as a filtering criterion and/or to classify stable vs. non-stable in a “likelihood of stability” sense. At this point, the list of candidates may be sufficiently reduced to “high likelihood of synthesizability” compounds suitable for e.g. arc-melting.
