Fixes #531

This implements a quick-and-dirty fix for double counted site["scale"] when subsampling. This corresponds to Solution 2 in #531. The author would like to merge this PR first, and later clean up by implementing Solution 1 in #531.

Tested

Added a regression test in tests/infer/test_gradient.py that compares gradient estimates with and without subsampling. Results are:

which elbo distribution Before this PR After this PR
Trace reparametrized PASS PASS
Trace non-reparametrized FAIL PASS
TraceGraph reparametrized PASS PASS
TraceGraph non-reparametrized FAIL PASS

assert_equal(actual_grads, expected_grads, prec=precision)


# The golden values below (mu_q_expected/log_sig_q_expected/) need to be updated each time

This test was moved from test_gradient_step.py. The only changes were to add ids to the @pytest.mark.parameterize decorators.
