pyqkd - First parallel (hybrid) genetic algorithm

In this realese a first working, though still experimental and under development, parallel genetic algorithm is available. It's a hybrid one, which divides different possible rival Generations between multiple processes to develop and later again divides all Members of these rival Generations between a new batch of parallel process to have their fitness values computed.

Code tested on a simplified case of the endurance function optimisation and surprisingly it works.

pyqkd - First development version of PyQKD

With minimal functionalities, such as BB84 simulation and an implementation of a genetic algorithm, which correctly solves packaging problem and a maze, I'm creating a first development release, because this code is and will conitnue to be used externally. I want to be able to cite this repo and attract more contributors to develop it into a broad simulation package for physics, chemistry and biology.

Disclaimer: while I am a mathematician and a physicist who codes, I'm new to software development. Thus, please be patient and understanding with any and all irregularities.
