Request: Plumed for ABACUS AIMD/DPMD
Background
Plumed are usually used for enhance sampling (ES) in molecular dynamic to sample rare events and reactive problems. It is practical to use PLUMED in LAMMPS, CP2K and QE, and VASP have its own ES method. We need ES-MD in ABACUS.
Describe the solution you'd like
ABACUS can use PLUMED to do enhanced sampling by AIMD or DPMD

@YuLiu98 plumed is a collection of enhanced sampling methods implementation, could you have a look if we can easily make ABACUS interface with it?
#2762 This feature was discussed a year ago. Plumed is an indispensable component in the MD module of DFT software. I believe that one of the most important tasks for further strengthen the MD module is the implementation of Plumed. Leaving aside AIMD, although DPMD has been implemented very well in LAMMPS, for heavy ABACUS users, it is convenient to do the same thing in a familiar software, although it may not be easy.
