Fixed pyqir imports and added provisional bitcode method

• pyqir imports were problematic after new upgrade
• Added commented-out methodconvert_to_bitcode with the exact same structure as convert_to_ir
  • Decided to comment it out until issue with IR results is resolved

The issue you mention is the one where the IR does not include the result recording functions, and we need to add them manually? Or is it something else?

Yes. Since we need to manually edit the IR, obtaining the bitcode directly from the "incomplete" IR is useless for now. Thus, I commented out the function for the bitcode.
