Make backend required for cloud channel
What is the expected feature or enhancement?
Soon primitives will no longer support abstract circuits, and as a result of that backend
can no longer be optional when calling primitives.
Acceptance criteria
- [x] Issue a warning that
backend
will soon be required when calling Sampler, Estimator, Session, and Batch (#1425). - [ ] Make
backend
required after the 3 months deprecation period
The deprecation warning was added in 0.21
, released on 3/5 so we'll have to wait until at least 6/5
