Enable the following pattern

def localFunction():
    @cudaq.kernel
    def bell(i : int):
        q = cudaq.qvector(i)
        h(q[0])
        x.ctrl(q[0], q[1])    
    return bell 

opaqueBell = localFunction()
    
@cudaq.kernel
def kernel():
     opaqueBell(2)

counts = cudaq.sample(opaqueBell)  # Is this typo?

Can you help clarify this example?
I think counts = cudaq.sample(opaqueBell, 2) is supported before this PR, and this PR will enable counts = cudaq.sample(kernel)?

This new functionality is for capturing kernels declared elsewhere (like in a function), and aliased with a new variable name.
