Bug: NegativeBinomial2 means still need zero-padding #830

@dylanhmorris

Description

@dylanhmorris

#806 incorrectly removed zero-padding for NegativeBinomial2 distributions, on the incorrect assumption that the addition of support for zero-mean Poisson would resolve issues with zero-mean negative binomials. This was not the case. Our tests did not catch this. We should

  • Add tests for NegativeBinomialNoise and NegativeBinomialObservation with 0 mean and confirm they currently fail.
  • Add back epsilon padding to NegativeBinomialNoise and NegativeBinomialObservation
  • Confirm the tests now pass.
