Commit Message

Add `QuantumCircuit.noop` for instructionless qubit use (#13774)

This closes a usability gap between the low-level construction of
control-flow ops and the builder interface.  In the builder interface,
there was previously no way to consider a qubit to be "used" by the
scope without adding some corresponding instruction on it.  It was
possible to express this already by manually constructing the blocks.

In general, this is not so useful for the control-flow operations that
we already have present because the additional dependency is spurious
and simply stymies some ability to perform optimisations.  It is also a
fair optimisation to remove the spurious data dependency in the
transpiler.  It becomes more useful with the upcoming `box`, however;
this has additional semantics around its incident data dependencies.
