These changes look great! Thanks, Ben.
I don't see any new tests... It seems all of the C++ tests will be run except the ones which are skipped with #ifndef CUDAQ_BACKEND_STIM. What about Python - may be we should add a couple which showcase which gates are supported and behavior on unsupported gates.
* Add Python tests (with negative tests) * Throw an addition error message * Add TODO
Thanks for the suggestion, Pradnya. I added some Stim-specific backend tests in 20343fd. Please take a look and let me know if that's what you had in mind, or if you'd like to see something else, too. |

* Reduce the number of files built to only those needed by libstim. This makes the build go a little bit faster. * Remove warnings when compiling libstim to not clutter up console * Make the warning custimizations ONLY applicable to Stim submodule building (i.e. allow regular warnings/errors in StimCircuitSimulator.cpp) * Remove unneeded macro

Add https://github.com/quantumlib/Stim (v1.13.0) simulator for Clifford-only circuits.
