Diagonalization of Pauli XX + Pauli YY

Diagonalization of a mixture of tensor products of pauli X and pauli Y by finding a common eigenbasis

Illustration of Problem

Given \(\begin{equation} H = \sigma_X \otimes \sigma_X + \sigma_Y \otimes \sigma_Y, \end{equation}\) diagonalize the whole thing so that we can build a simulation circuit that does not split the two terms.
