- Allow specifying nominal values of noisy constants explicitly instead of using the center values of the interval. - Sample noisy constant values first and then optimize other parameter's values based on those values, instead of optimizing optimizing other parameters assuming the noisy constant's nominal values, and then changing the noisy constant's value afterwords. I believe this is desirable because the sampler can explore desirable parameter values under different noisy constant values.

Motivation
This PR improves the handling of noisy constants in RobustGPSampler in the following two aspects:
Allow specifying nominal values of noisy constants explicitly instead of using the center values of the interval implicitly.
Sample noisy constant values first and then optimize other parameter's values based on those values, instead of optimizing optimizing other parameters assuming the noisy constant's nominal values, and then changing the noisy constant's value afterwords. I believe this is desirable because the sampler can explore desirable parameter values under different values of constant noisy parameters.
