Application
I want to be able to see whether I set a hard or soft constraint on my CQM and what value of weight & penalty fo rsoft constraints.

Proposed Solution
Display as part of the dimod.CQM.constraint

Alternatives Considered
If that causes backward compatibility, maybe a new field. .

Additional Context

cqm1 = dimod.ConstrainedQuadraticModel()
a = dimod.Integer('a')
cqm1.add_constraint(a <= 3, weight=55, penalty="linear", label="Soft constraint")
cqm1.constraints["Soft constraint"]

Output Le(QuadraticModel({'a': 1.0}, {}, 0.0, {'a': 'INTEGER'}, dtype='float64'), 3) gives no hint of the type of constraint.

If you want to check whether the constraint is hard or soft you can use

try:
    print(cqm1._soft["Soft constraint"])
except KeyError:
    print("not a soft constraint")

and that will show the weight and penalty

We should make that a non-internal method though, right?
