First pass at implementing WALNUTS, partly as a learning opportunity. It runs with pm.sample but does not yet produce a good sample. Still lots of work to do.

I favor @aseyboldt's implementation over mine. Closing.

Not at all. This was 80% me wanting to learn the algo. I suppose we could still have a PyMC implementation and a Rust implementation, but for now probably best to focus on the better one.
