JSONDecodeError when getting results via IonQ Backend if not measuring all qubits

Inizia in azure/quantum/qiskit/job.py, in particolare in _format_results e _format_ionq_results, e riproduci il problema con un job IonQ che non misuri ogni qubit. Controlla come viene gestito meas_map prima del parsing JSON. Il lavoro è completo quando job.result() formatta i risultati senza generare un JSONDecodeError per i circuiti con misurazioni parziali.

I'm getting an error when calling job.result() from ionq.simulator. Details in thread.

A temporary fix: measure all your qubits
The problem is that meas_map may have None for any qubits you don't measure. which is breaking the parsing
