In Qiskit#6299 support was fixed for strict BackendV1 backends that only take QuantumCircuit objects (instead of qobj) for the input. That was fixed by adding a parallel path when running with a new backend. However that parallel path wasn't identical and was missing the support the qobj path had for splitting an algorithm run into multiple jobs if the backend if the number of circuits was greater than the max_experiments set in the backend. This would result on some providers' backends, such as ionq and aqt, both of which have max_experiments set to 1. This commit fixes this issue by splitting the circuits list into smaller sublists when the len(circuits) > max_experiments (or the old env var, which we should change the name of at some point).

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I just copied this from the qobj path, but I don't think this is actually correct. We should probably defer to the max_experiments value in the configuration because a local backend might not accept the max list size circuits for a single job.

This commit fixes the merge conflicts from backporting Qiskit#6391 to stable/0.17. The tests added in Qiskit#6391 are just removed because they can't actually run without Qiskit#6286 which isn't backportable.

Summary
In #6299 support was fixed for strict BackendV1 backends that only take
QuantumCircuit objects (instead of qobj) for the input. That was fixed
by adding a parallel path when running with a new backend. However that
parallel path wasn't identical and was missing the support the qobj path
had for splitting an algorithm run into multiple jobs if the backend if
the number of circuits was greater than the max_experiments set in the
backend. This would result on some providers' backends, such as ionq and
aqt, both of which have max_experiments set to 1. This commit fixes this
issue by splitting the circuits list into smaller sublists when the
len(circuits) > max_experiments (or the old env var, which we should
change the name of at some point).
