Accept rational-precision mixed profiles for liap_solve #721
Description
Requested enahancement or feature
At the moment liap_solve expects the strategy profile passed to be of float (double) precision (MixedStrategyProfileDouble). It would be good to allow a rational-precision profile too, converting it to a double profile internally within the solver function call.
This is completely analogous to issue #458 which is for logit_estimate.

@rahulsavani What would your view be on adding a
.as_double()conversion to the mixed (strategy|behavior) profile instead? This would make it straightforward to convert, but require the user to convert.Of course that is not mutually exclusive to accepting any profile as a convenience.

Within reason I support convenience, so tend to think we should do both, adding the conversion to the profile, and allowing any profile in the solvers as a convenience.
Add `.as_float` to convert mixed profiles to floating-point equivalen…
