Prepare 0.15.0 release
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This commit moves the release notes into a 0.15 subdirectory to keep
them separate from development notes post-release. It also adds an
incomplete release note to add the prelude section providing the high
level overview of the release. When this merges it should be the commit
used to to tag the 0.15.0 release.

prelude: >
The 0.15.0 release includes several new features and bug fixes. Some
highlights for this release are:
For the transpiler this release include the introduction of arbitrarty
basis translation to the transpiler. This includes support for directly
targetting a broader range of device basis sets, including backends
implementing the CZ and iSwap gates.
The :class:`~qiskit.circuits.QuantumCircuit` class now tracks global
phase.

features:
- |
A new ``translation_method`` keyword argument has been added to
:func:`~qiskit.compiler.transpile` to allow selection of the method to be
used for translating circuits to the available device gates. For example,
``transpile(circ, backend, translation_method='translator')``. Valid
choices are ``'unroller'`` to use the
:class:`~qiskit.transpiler.passes.Unroller` pass and ``'translator'`` to
use the :class:`~qiskit.transpiler.passes.BasisTranslator` pass. The
default value is ``'translator'``.
