//! Hardware-efficient ansatze with alternating rotation and entanglement layers.
//!
//! This module provides the [`TwoLocal`] ansatz and related components. TwoLocal
//! is one of the most widely used ansatz architectures in variational quantum
//! algorithms due to its flexibility and hardware efficiency.
//!
//! # TwoLocal Architecture
//!
//! The TwoLocal ansatz consists of alternating layers:
//!
//! 1. **Rotation Layers**: Single-qubit parameterized gates (e.g., `RY`, `RZ`, `RX`).
//! 2. **Entanglement Layers**: Two-qubit gates creating correlations between qubits
//!    (e.g., `CX`, `CZ`).
//!
//! The pattern is: `[Rotation] → [Entanglement] → [Rotation] → [Entanglement] → ...`
//!
//! # Entanglement Topologies
//!
//! Different problem structures benefit from different entanglement patterns:
//!
//! - [`Linear`][`EntanglementTopology::Linear`]: Nearest-neighbor interactions.
//!   Best for near-term devices with limited connectivity.
//!
//! - [`Circular`][`EntanglementTopology::Circular`]: Linear + wrap-around edge.
//!   Adds periodic boundary conditions.
//!
//! - [`Full`][`EntanglementTopology::Full`]: All-to-all connectivity.
//!   Most expressive but requires many gates.
//!
//! - [`Custom`][`EntanglementTopology::Custom`]: User-defined qubit pairs.
//!   Allows problem-specific tailoring.
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! ```
//! use cqlib_core::circuit::ansatz::{Ansatz, TwoLocal, EntanglementTopology};
//! use cqlib_core::circuit::gate::StandardGate;
//!
//! // Create an EfficientSU2-style ansatz
//! let ansatz = TwoLocal::new(4)
//!     .reps(3)
//!     .rotation_gates(vec![StandardGate::RY, StandardGate::RZ])
//!     .entanglement(EntanglementTopology::Circular)
//!     .entanglement_gate(StandardGate::CX);

///
/// The circuit structure follows this pattern:

/// ```text
/// Layer 0:    [R]───────[R]───────[R]───────[R]    (Rotation)
///               │       │       │       │

/// ...
/// ```
///
/// Where `[R]` represents parameterized rotation gates and `[E]` represents
/// entanglement gates.
///
/// # Configuration
///

/// - [`reps`](Self::reps): Number of repetition layers

/// - [`entanglement_gate`](Self::entanglement_gate): Two-qubit gate (e.g., `CX`, `CZ`)
/// - [`entanglement`](Self::entanglement): Connectivity pattern
/// - [`skip_final_rotation_layer`](Self::skip_final_rotation_layer): Omit final rotation
///

/// The total number of parameters is:
