Add Wigner plotting via CairoMakie #292

By the way, is it also possible to generate our logo with this function ? |

I would say yes. Indeed, it would be a good thing to apply this function directly in the tutorial of the logo. |

It is straightforward to use this function to follow the logo tutorial up to where dissipation is included ("Introducing some decoherence"). However, I don't see an easy way to generate the full logo with the three julia colors, as that's not an heatmap anymore. In the tutorial you manually combine the colors to have a grid of RGB values displayed with Ideally, I would now add documentation and tests and fix a couple of minor details before pushing a new version. If you have any advice on how follow the tutorial till the end, though, I'd be happy to implement it. |

This PR introduces plotting capabilities in QuantumToolbox (starting from the
plot_wignerfunction implemented in QuTip).To reduce the impact on loading time, I wrote an extension for the CairoMakie library, such that the necessary code is not loaded by default. Moreover, this allows extending the scheme to additional plotting libraries like PyPlot or Plots (although I haven't done it).
The
plot_wignerfunction implements 2D and 3D projections of the Wigner and reproduces QuTip's output as faithfully as possible.Related issues or PRs
