Population marginalization

Reed Essick requested to merge population-marginalization into master

This merge request adds logic to marginalize over population models, suitable if one was to take population hyperposterior samples from a previous population analysis as a model of the mass-distance prior distributions. This is equivalent to using the "posterior population distribution" from a previous population analysis as the prior for the Mmax model selection analysis. Note, however, that this does not account for the fact that we have observed more events since the previous population analysis was conducted (i.e., it doesn't strictly correspond to the equations presented in arxiv:2007.01372.
