Add `circuit_evolution_batch` to run circuit evolution in batch mode #30

Closed ma-sadeghi closed 7 months ago

This PR adds a thin wrapper around circuit_evolution so it can be run in batch mode, i.e. run multiple times to generate multiple plausible candidate circuits in parallel. We need this in AutoEIS, where we want to generate multiple potential candidates and then rank them based on some statistical criteria. We originally tried to use Python multiprocessing to do this on our side, but it turned out to be quite fragile especially for macOS.

The wrapper accepts two keyword arguments in addition to the ones accepted by circuit_evolution:

@MaximeVH I'd really appreciate it if you could review this PR and let me know what you think.

I think this is indeed a useful addition to the package
