Add ZeroSumNormal support #941

@AlexAndorra

Description

@AlexAndorra

Currently, Bambi uses reference-encoding by default when categorical predictors and / or a Categorical/Multinomial likelihood is present in the model. It'd be great to add the choice to use a zero-sum constraint, instead of a reference-encoding one, since many modeling cases involve categories without clear placebo/reference.

It shouldn't be too hard (famous last words), since PyMC already has ZeroSumNormal.
