propagate: Propagation of Uncertainty

Propagation of uncertainty using higher-order Taylor expansion and Monte Carlo simulation. Calculations of propagated uncertainties are based on matrix calculus including covariance structure according to Arras 1998 <doi:10.3929/ethz-a-010113668> (first order), Wang & Iyer 2005 <doi:10.1088/0026-1394/42/5/011> (second order) and the Monte Carlo method of GUM Supplement 1 (2008) <doi:10.59161/JCGM101-2008>.
