Nicely done! Good thinking to add more flexibility in choice of GKP state for the user.

Context: Currently, strawberryfields only supports square lattice GKP states. The simplest more general type of GKP states are rectangular lattice GKP states (instead of peak spacing by sqrt(pi) in q quadrature, it's sqrt(alpha*sqrt(pi)). This allows for, e.g. GKP sensor states.
Description of the Change: Adds the ability to initialize rectangular GKP states to the bosonic and fock backends.
Benefits: Wider class of states to simulate.
