Detailed Description

An interface for various runtime estimators.

This interface defines a method for estimating the execution time of quantum simulations. There could be various implementations of this interface that provide different estimation strategies, also they might be specialized for certain simulators and/or simulation types (for example clifford, mps, statevector). It's not used directly, but in an implementation of the SimulatorsEstimatorInterface.
