This PR adds the DIMEMove as proposed here: https://gregorboehl.com/live/dime_mcmc_boehl.pdf

DIME is an ensemble move that is intended to provide fast burn-in for high-dimensional distributions and to perform well for multimodal distributions. See here for an example: https://github.com/gboehl/emcwrap#tutorial

I am happy to create some documentation, e.g. by adding the above tutorial to the emcee documentation.

I will also post in the mailing list...

Cheers!

Thanks for this contribution! I'm totally swamped right now, but I'll try to take a closer look at this ASAP.

In case anyone is interested, there is an emcee drop-in version of the DIME move here:

I am of course still happy to resolve any issues related to this PR!
