description:
ket1 -- ket2
subtract the value of ket2 from ket1
we do our best to preserve categories
if one ket has a category, and the other doesn't then the result has that category
if ket1 and ket2 have different categories then return the empty ket |>
if ket1 and ket2 are 2D, then subtract them component-wise
examples:
|3> -- |5>
|-2>
|number: 3> -- |5>
|number: -2>
|number: 3> -- |page: 5>
|>
|2: 5> -- |3: 7>
|-1: -2>
