    Identity gate corresponds to a single-qubit gate wait cycle,
    and should not be optimized or unrolled (it is an opaque gate).

    Can be applied to a :class:`~qiskit.circuit.QuantumCircuit`
    with the :meth:`~qiskit.circuit.QuantumCircuit.i` and
    :meth:`~qiskit.circuit.QuantumCircuit.id` methods.

                0 & 1
