##     PLUGIN AND DEVICE OPTIONS
## =================================================================
## This section contains the PennyLane configuration options for each
## installed plugin or device. These configuration options allow you
## to set global configuration options on a device-by-device basis.
## and to also set options specific to certain device.
##
## You may add additional plugin- and device-specific options here.
## Options that apply globally to all devices within a single plugin
## are grouped under the
##
##   [plugin.global]
##
## heading. Options that apply only to a specific device are grouped
## under the
##
##   [plugin.device]
##
## heading.
