Function __imul__ in binary_code.py may return None by Default

[mhucka]

Function __imul__ in src/openfermion/ops/operators/binary_code.py has an if-elif conditional containing return statements, but doesn't have a final/default return, which means it will return None if none of the conditions match. This may not be a valid return value – need to check and add an appropriate return at the end.

Hello, we tried to solve the issue.

This is what we did:

Added a default return statement at the end of the imul method in the BinaryCode class to ensure it always returns self, even if none of the conditions match. This prevents the method from implicitly returning None.
