Summary

Fixes #8438

Fixes issue where Pauli.evolve and PauliList.evolve would raise a dtype error when evolving by certain Clifford gates which modified the Pauli's phase.

Details and comments

This fix make it so that rather than cast the dtype of the phase vector to a fixed type, it will accept any signed or unsigned integer dtype and work with that.

Thanks for the quick fix, this looks great. I only had one question, but the answer doesn't really matter for merging.

I'm guessing this is int for consistency with other methods in this class?
