Implement pure separable state preparation #490

Open glassnotes opened 3 years ago

glassnotes commented 3 years ago

As discussed in #488, local state preparation forces the use of a mixed state representation under the hood, even if the state is pure in theory.

A proposed new feature is to give the user the option to explicitly prepare pure states.
