Finish an initial working prototype:
(1) Calculate the overall U matrix
(2) Construct params to run quantum optimal control
(3) Transform the Composite instruction accordingly

Need to add a way to pass target U as STL containers to prevent heterogenous map look-up failure w/ Eigen container.

Testing QPT with QuaC, I was puzzled by the fact that `getPointerLike<Accelerator>` and `getPointerLike<CompositeInstruction>` were failing although I *did* send on those two parameters and the heterogenous map *does* contain those params, just that the templated functions are mismatched (possibly between the QuaC side and XACC side)

My theory was that because these are all implicit instantiations, somehow, they can become mismatched (the order in which the compiler sees those instantiations), especially with external linkage (like QuaC).

Anyway, by explicitly instantiating those (Accelerator and Composite), the issue is fixed.

Also, fix a bug in QPT where the imaginary chi vector is always uninitialized (all zeros)

Lastly, add an option to QPT to disable circuit optimization. When the circuit contains pulse instructions, the circuit optimizer doesn’t work correctly (looks like it may skip the pulse instruction and merge gates)

Tested by: running XACC tests and QuaC QPT tests.
