Numpyro

**Breaking change:** By default, [Predictive](https://num.pyro.ai/en/stable/utilities.html#numpyro.infer.util.Predictive) will recompute the "deterministic" sites if they are provided by posterior_samples. This brings Predictive to the behavior before the 0.14.0 release. To avoid recomputing deterministic sites like in the 0.14.0 release, set `Predictive(..., exclude_deterministic=False)`.

**Breaking change:** [Predictive](https://num.pyro.ai/en/stable/utilities.html#numpyro.infer.util.Predictive) will try to avoid recomputing "deterministic" sites if it is provided in `posterior_samples`. Those deterministic sites are excluded in the previous releases.
