Resolve #430 (Add normalisation flag to constrained prior)

This MR resolves issue #430 (closed) to properly normalize ConstrainedPriorDict.prob() when sampling the prior. This MR allows for users to input a normalisation flag when creating an instance of a Constraint prior and when calling ConstrainedPriorDict.prob() if there are normalisation constants given will return the normalisation*prob and otherwise use the ratio of total samples to kept samples as this normalisation constant. Pass normalisation=1 when creating a Constraint Prior for behaviour before this MR.
