Build conformer using Distance Geometry

This cube generates a new conformer for an input molecule.

This cube is especially suitable for conformer generation of macrocycle molecules, as conformers are generated based on distance geometry.

The new molecule conformer is added to the intake port record and emitted through the success port.
