Description
this adds
pyhf.utils.hypotest_toys
with a similar signature as the asymptoticpyhf.utils.hypotest
and introduces test statistic classes for both asymptotics and empirial (i.e. toy based) test statistic distributions. With these classes the actual hypotest code is mostly agnostic to how the test statistic distribution is derived
