Documentation is not clear on the difference between allocate_qubits and create_qubits.

Documentation is not clear on the difference between allocate_qubits and create_qubits.

The documentation for allocate_qubits: "Requests the backend to reserve some qubits."

The documentation for create_qubits: "Creates (i.e. allocates) multiple qubits, and returns a list with qubit objects." which seems to imply that it is the same as allocate_qubits.

@brunorijsman This is indeed true and is due to being backwards compatible. They in fact do essentially the same thing at the moment and we should perhaps deprecate one of them.

Thanks for pointing this out.
