Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Sort of, when I run geometry optimizations I loose all my work if the computation doesn't converge.

Describe the solution you'd like
A record back from QCEngine that contains the energies/geometries from the relaxation - even if it failed.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I'm not sure what remedies I have within QCEngine. I could do "scratch_messy=True" so the restart information stay there and harvest them out of QCengine.

Additional context
I am writing this with NWChemDriver in mind, but this might also be a problem for the other geometry optimization procedrues.
