Added an 'identity' tensor splitting option #241

This PR adds an "identity" tensor split operation that does nothing, i.e. sets the identity matrix as either the left or the right split. One use is creating an MPS network from a dense tensor in very little time and zero error.

(forgive me if there's a way to do this already -- I didn't find it)

Hi @rballester, yes this seems like nice functionality to have, thanks! I've left a couple of comments to address, and if you have time, it would certainly be nice to also add a small unit test.

The middle element should probably just be left as None, otherwise it flags to calling functions above that 'singular values' have been returned. This happens with other methods only when the option absorb=None. Or one could add that option and but default to absorb=0 (which means absorbed on either side), if you imagine that it might be useful to initialize simple update gauges for example.

I also suggest here using do("eye", x.shape[0], like=x) and do("ones", x.shape[0], like=x) rather than backend_like since autoray now supports picking up the correct device and dtype for these array creation routines.
