Description

Qiskit have diagonal gates.

These seem to be implemented in the same way as pytket's DiagonalBox. We should be able to support this in the circuit converters.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing DiagonalBox in pytket and the Diagonal gate in qiskit documentation. Implement a converter that maps between them, following the patterns of other converters in the codebase.
