The main change is that Dirichlet now has a const trait N for
the dimension. The other significant change is to propagate
errors that could occur when Beta:new or Gamma::new is called.
* Create a struct for each random variate generation method:
DirichletFromGamma and DirichletFromBeta.
* Move the initialization of the data required by the generators
into the new() method.
* Make the main Dirichlet object an enum.
* Forbid unsafe code in crates without unsafe code
This helps tools like `cargo geiger`.
* Make `Uniform` constructors return a result
- This is a breaking change.
- The new error type had to be made public, otherwise `Uniform` could
not be extended for user-defined types by implementing
`UniformSampler`.
- `rand_distr` was updated accordingly.
- Also forbid unsafe code for crates where none is used.
Fixes#1195, #1211.

The previous implementation used either `Vec::insert` or a second
F-Y shuffling phase to achieve fair random order. Instead, use the
random numbers already drawn to achieve a fair shuffle.
* Bump MSRV to 1.56 (Edition 2021)
* Apply Clippy suggestions
* Bump edition and add rust-version field to Cargo.toml
* CI AVR test: unpin nightly rust version
* Disable AVR test
* Bump crate version numbers for a breaking release
* examples/rayon-monte-carlo.rs: remove execute bit of file metadata
* Document in README that MSRV is 1.51.0
This was changed in #1246
* Update GitHub Actions
* Fix the documentation for `choose_weighted(_mut)` as discussed in #1243.
* Mention that elements of zero weight are handled as expected by `WeightedIndex` as discussed in #1243.
Additionally fix some minor issues.
* Let the second example of `WeightedIndex` use floats to stress that they are handled correctly for the zero case.
* Manually indent doc comments.
