A job's "params" gives each of its program's parameters (input float,
input angle) its value, bound exactly before the program is read; a
parameter left without one is refused (Q114, J040), and a sweep may fix
some parameters in "params" while it sweeps the others. qasm::tangents
reads a program with every gate's derivative by each parameter, carried
forward through arithmetic, the built-in functions, gate definitions,
broadcast and loops; what it cannot follow is refused on its line (Q129).
The job codes for gradients, optimisation and the builders (J041 to J043)
join the table.
