Description
Describe the feature you'd like to have
In #182 the Kaniadakis entropy was introduced. However, the book which gives the formula doesn't state for which discrete probability distribution it is maximised, so entropy_maximum just throws an error for now.
It would be nice to be able to compute the maximum discrete Kaniadakis entropy too.

The formula for the maximum Kaniadakis entropy as a function of the number of samples is probably given in the literature somewhere, but I haven't seen it yet. A good starting point is to follow the references in Tsallis (2009) book, which gives the definition of Kaniadakis entropy.
