Allow selection of the distribution of the observations #27

Currently only independent negative binomial is possible. Could add some multivariate normal distribution (eg with constant correlation) to allow for specific dependence between observations.

any reason not to offer Poisson as well?

Agreed that Poisson is probably one we should include as well once we get around to this feature.

Currently have negative binomial and poisson - more can be added in future
