Make more explicit to user that BBVI (right now) is mean-field, and may be imperfect

Especially for state space models. Aim has always been to replace mean-field structure with something more appropriate, but in the meantime need to flag in the documentation and examples that this is imperfect because mean-field does not properly account for dependencies in the posterior.
