Discalimer: This pull request is a work in progress, more updates have to be made before it should be accepted

This PR adds a tutorial about simulating the Variational Quantum Thermalizer in Qiskit.

Changes That Need to Be Made

• Code blocks need to be broken up more and include more comments about exactly what is going on in each function.
• Sampling simulation needs to be fixed
• Incorporating the sigmoid activation function into the latent space parametrization

If anyone notices anything else that should be changed, other than the things that have already been outlined please leave a comment!

What is the difference between this and #403 ? Can this be closed?

[Lucaman99]

@nonhermitian It's not the same thing as #403, but this Notebook isn't really working as I would like it yet, so you can close it for now, and if I get it to work I'll re-open it 🙂
