v0.25.0

Summary

Highlights from this release include a bug fixed in DDD, extended documentation for identity insertion as a noise scaling technique, new results from testing DDD on IBMQ hardware, a new function mitiq.benchmarks.w_state_circuits.generate_w_circuit to generate W-state circuits, and a finalized calibration API. The new calibration module can be used as such:

from mitiq import Calibrator

cal = Calibrator(execute, frontend="cirq")
cal.execute_with_mitigation(circuit, expval_executor)

Breaking Changes: The force_run_all option for the evaluate method defined on Executor objects now defaults to True.
