Describe the bug

Kernel cant take a list of tuples as an input.

import cudaq 

@cudaq.kernel
def kernel(a: list[tuple]): 
    q = cudaq.qvector(2)

a =[(1,2)]

cudaq.sample(kernel, a)
Offending code:
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/runpy.py", line 196, in _run_module_as_main
    return _run_code(code, main_globals, None,

Research direction

Start with the provided Python reproducer, focusing on the list[tuple] kernel annotation and the cudaq.sample entry point. Trace where the offending source is rejected and verify completion by confirming that a kernel accepting [(1, 2)] can be passed to cudaq.sample without an error.
