Make mad() actually follow the definition of median absolute deviation as it is generally defined (eg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median_absolute_deviation, scipy, matlab, mathematica, ...).

Obviously breaking. Are there any other breaking fixes that could go into the next StatsBase version?

See #905, #97, #347 for more context.

We should really go to 1.0 next time we make a breaking release.

Suggested change
version = "0.35.0"
version = "1.0"

It would be good to check whether we want to make other breaking changes though (I don't have ideas off the top of my head).
