This PR generalizes the thresholding implementation so that it can be instantiated with a set of thresholds that categorizes the inputs into an arbitrary number of buckets that is no longer assumed to be a full power of two.
This adjustment reinterprets the parameter
N
as the number of thresholds rather than the output precision. This implies corresponding adjustments in the compiler. However, the compiler does currently not exploit this newly gained flexibility.
