Describe the feature

The Base Profile Specification contains many requirements for a Base Profile QIR 1.0 program, and cuda-quantum is not currently enforcing, complying with, and verifying all of them. This top-level issue will be used to discuss items that affect multiple requirements and track improvements to cuda-quantum with respect to these specifications. New issues will be created to work specific items and track individual PRs.

The attached spreadsheet contains relatively priorities Base_Profile_Spec_Analysis_GH.xlsx (updated Sep 7, 2023) for each requirement, but they are tentative priorities and may change as needed.
