Null likelihood

This is an initial attempt at adding a test of the samplers by setting the log likelihood to return 0.

This may not go into the unit testing in the end, but will be needed for review tests.

@vivien @gregory.ashton @moritz.huebner @eric.thrane

@colm.talbot Can you add some basic tests to this as well?

@moritz.huebner, good call, done.

This is currently failing because the MCMC samplers aren't generating enough samples to burn in.

Compare with previous version

The cpnest test failing suggests that it's using a slightly outdated version of cpnest.
