Add function that goes from transformed space to untransformed space
Description
Because we don't save transformed variables in the returned InferenceData (why not?) it's not easy to evaluate the model logp once we have a trace.
~~One could rewrite the model without transforms (and we can make this automatically for the user)~~ This is possible with https://www.pymc.io/projects/docs/en/stable/api/model/generated/pymc.model.transform.conditioning.remove_value_transforms.html
But someone might still want to evaluate it in the original model (with jacobians and all that).
One dirty implementation is given here: https://discourse.pymc.io/t/logp-questions-synthetic-dataset-to-evaluate-modeling/12129/6?u=ricardov94
Results should be saved in https://python.arviz.org/en/latest/schema/schema.html#unconstrained-posterior
We should make sure there's an option from pm.sample to store those, besides allowing users to populate them afterwards with a helper as initially suggested in this issue
