Research direction

Locate the PyQuilExecutableResponse and BinaryExecutableResponse implementations and compare the public behavior exposed by each. Check how QVM and QPU responses use these classes, then define completion by making PyQuilExecutableResponse no more inspectable or manipulable than BinaryExecutableResponse while preserving the QVM-to-QPU transition.
