Turing v0.30.1

Diff since v0.30.0

Merged pull requests:

• Update HISTORY.md (#2149) (@sunxd3)
• Fix AbstractMCMC 5 compatibility (#2153) (@devmotion)

Closed issues:

• Transpilation of pure WinBUGS code when reimplementing Prior and Posterior Prediction (#2148)

What's Changed

• Replaced specifying a global AD backend with ADTypes.jl. Users should now specify the desired ADType directly in sampler constructors, e.g., HMC(0.1, 10; adtype=AutoForwardDiff(; chunksize)), or HMC(0.1, 10; adtype=AutoReverseDiff(false)) (false indicates not to use compiled tape).
• Interface functions such as ADBackend, setadbackend, setadsafe, setchunksize, and setrdcache are deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
• Removed the outdated verifygrad function.
• Updated to a newer version of LogDensityProblemsAD (v1.7).

New Contributors

• @sunxd3 made their first contribution in https://github.com/TuringLang/Turing.jl/pull/2134
