Description

Generalize ProjOuterProdTTN to general products of TTNs. Currently it only supports an outer product build from a product of two TTNs. Also maybe it should be named ProjOuterTTNProd, or be design as a general type ProjOuter which wraps a TTNProd, which represents half of the outer product.

Related to #132, #133, #134.

Research direction

Start by reading ProjOuterProdTTN and the related issues #132, #133, and #134. Compare the current two-TTN behavior with the desired general product, then resolve whether to generalize the existing type or introduce the proposed ProjOuter and TTNProd design. Done means products of more than two TTNs are supported through a settled API.
