Dependencies and features

• Bump the MSRV to 1.61.0 (#​1207, #​1246, #​1269, #​1341, #​1416); note that 1.60.0 may work for dependents when using --ignore-rust-version
• Update to rand v0.9.0 (#​1558)
• Rename feature serde1 to serde (#​1477)

API changes

• Make distributions comparable with PartialEq (#​1218)
• Dirichlet now uses const generics, which means that its size is required at compile time (#​1292)
• The Dirichlet::new_with_size constructor was removed (#​1292)
• Add WeightedIndexTree (#​1372, #​1444)
• Add PertBuilder to allow specification of mean or mode (#​1452)
• Rename Zeta's parameter a to s (#​1466)
• Mark WeightError, PoissonError, BinomialError as #[non_exhaustive] (#​1480)
• Remove support for usage of isize as a WeightedAliasIndex weight (#​1487)
• Change parameter type of Zipf::new: n is now floating-point (#​1518)

API changes: renames

• Move Slice -> slice::Choose, EmptySlice -> slice::Empty (#​1548)
• Rename trait DistString -> SampleString (#​1548)
• Rename DistIter -> Iter, DistMap -> Map (#​1548)
• Move {Weight, WeightError, WeightedIndex} -> weighted::{Weight, Error, WeightedIndex} (#​1548)
• Move weighted_alias::{AliasableWeight, WeightedAliasIndex} -> weighted::{..} (#​1548)
• Move weighted_tree::WeightedTreeIndex -> weighted::WeightedTreeIndex (#​1548)

Testing

• Add Kolmogorov Smirnov tests for distributions (#​1494, #​1504, #​1525, #​1530)

Fixes

• Fix Knuth's method so Poisson doesn't return -1.0 for small lambda (#​1284)
• Fix Poisson distribution instantiation so it return an error if lambda is infinite (#​1291)
• Fix Dirichlet sample for small alpha values to avoid NaN samples (#​1209)
• Fix infinite loop in Binomial distribution (#​1325)
• Fix Pert distribution where mode is close to (min + max) / 2 (#​1452)
• Fix panic in Binomial (#​1484)
• Limit the maximal acceptable lambda for Poisson to solve (#​1312) (#​1498)
• Fix bug in Hypergeometric, this is a Value-breaking change (#​1510)

Other changes

• Remove unused fields from Gamma, NormalInverseGaussian and Zipf distributions (#​1184)
  This breaks serialization compatibility with older versions.
• Add plots for rand_distr distributions to documentation (#​1434)
• Move some of the computations in Binomial from sample to new (#​1484)
• Reimplement Poisson's rejection method to improve performance and correct sampling inaccuracies for large lambda values, this is a Value-breaking change (#​1560)
