Document the precision and limits of sample_laplace_distribution()

- Truncate descriptions
The function documentation of sample_laplace_distribution() should answer the following questions:
- what is the range of outputs?
- what is the precision of the outputs?
add_laplace_noise() should document, and possible enforce:
- what is the maximum
delta_f / epsilon
value that can be used within the limits of double precision arithmetic?- to preserve differential privacy, the low bits have to be obscured by the noise. So this can be at most 2^53^.
- what is the minimum
delta_f / epsilon
value that can be used within the limits of double precision arithmetic?- (zero provides no differential privacy)
