Update `openqaoa-qiskit` to Qiskit 1.0 #304

Closed KilianPoirier closed 1 month ago

KilianPoirier commented 2 months ago

Issue Description

OpenQAOA is currently not compatible with the latest major release of Qiskit 1.0 and above, for more details see Qiskit release notes.

It is important that we update the package requirements and migrate to this new release before the anterior version becomes obsolete and support from the IBM backends stop for older versions of the package.

This issue concerns mostly the Qiskit plugin (openqaoa-qiskit) but also has implications on the Azure plugin (openqaoa-azure) because of its dependencies.

Changes to be made
