Description
**Describe the feature you'd like**
State-loading gate / function - i.e., allowing for arbitrary initializations onto a statevector.
**How would this feature be used? Please describe.**
Circuit().load_to(state)
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
The householder unitary U = I - 2 vv+ achieves this, but requires creating and applying a matrix, both of which are unnecessary and problematic for large n. The QASM implementation seems non-trivial, but I feel there should be a better way.
