[Routing] Add support for directed device graphs. #5863

Description

@ammareltigani

Summarize the task
Currently, if a user wants to route their circuit on a device that has asymmetric coupling (i.e. you can execute a CNOT(q1, q2) but not CNOT(q2, q1)) then the transformer raises an error.

Acceptance criteria - when is the task considered done?
As an improvement, we can support directed device graphs using the swap decomposition: SWAP(0,1) <=>
CNOT(0,1), H(0), H(1), CNOT(0,1), H(0), H(1), CNOT(0,1)
