Provide 2-sample Anderson Darling test as constraint #45

@kklein

Description

@kklein

The recently implemented Kolmogorov Smirnov test can be useful when trying to assess whether two samples are drawn from the identical underlying distribution. While it might already satisfy a user's need, some might argue (e.g. [0]) that other kinds of tests might be more adequate in certain circumstances. A prominent alternative could be the Anderson Darling [1] test.

Once our Kolmogorov Smirnov test query logic is implemented via the sqlalchemy language expression api - see #29 - it should be very easy to share a lot of the underlying query logic between both tests.
