Description This PR fixes issue #47 where asking for a very low Effective Sample Size (ESS < 10) causes a segmentation fault in the underlying C++ library (volesti).
Changes :-
Added a validation check in PolytopeSampler.generate_steady_states() and get_polytope() to enforce ess >= 10.
Raises a clear ValueError if ess is too low, preventing the crash and informing the user about the minimum requirement to avoid numerical instability.
Verification :-
Created a reproduction script that attempts to run generate_steady_states(ess=5).
Verified that the segmentation fault is no longer triggered and that a ValueError is raised instead.
