Polish Qibo cloud

[alecandido]

Sorry @BrunoLiegiBastonLiegi, there is some aftermath after closing #1157, I didn't notice during the review.

• rename backend "qibo-client"
• drop the qibo-cloud-backends dependency

Closes #1240

[alecandido]

The motivation for the rename is that qibo-cloud is the global client supporting remote execution, but on multiple backends, while the Qibo server is really qibo-client, so that's the backend.

(you can think as qibo-cloud-qiskit and qibo-cloud-qibo-client, with the initial qibo-cloud- omitted)

Sorry not to have pointed out when we discussed the naming in #1157

No, indeed, I was planning of changing it in the MetaBackend PR anyway.

[alecandido]

The rationale for the dependency removal is instead the same of qibojit: otherwise it would be circular.

Currently (before qibo-core will land), the dependency on qibo by external backends has to be explicit. Then, qibo is not going to depend on them.
Following the discussion in #822 most likely the explicit dependency on the external backends won't happen even afterward, but qibo will automatically discover dependencies (scoped import) when they are installed.

@alecandido thanks. At the end you are not moving the cloud-backends dependency to tests, right?

I scan through it, and it seems the two backends are not currently used in tests, thus there is no need for the dependency.

Can you confirm this @BrunoLiegiBastonLiegi?

Yes I can confirm, their tests are in qiboteam/qibo-cloud-backends indeed

Ok, thanks, could you please fix the conflict and merge?

Conflicts just fixed, I'm just waiting for the tests to pass
