Commit Message

Refactoring `Clifford` struct in Rust (#16587)

* Refactoring Clifford class

PauliList allows to store an arbitrary number of Paulis with associated phases
in a packed format that is optimized for vectorized conjugation by Clifford gates.

Clifford uses PauliList.

* merging (and cleaning up) new functionality from MCTS branch

* addressing review feedback:

* Re-exposing append methods from PauliList to Clifford, thus minimizing the churn for the changed lines.
  The direct access to entries in the Clifford tableau is using get_entry(row, column) method.
* Improving docstrings from Clifford and SymplecticMatrix to describe the stabilizer/destabilizer/X/Z/phase layout.
* Adding missing documentation and some missing tests.

* docstring for PauliList

* further improving documentation

* docstring improvements following the review
