Just update the docstring of the simple dgp

Do we want to remove the area yield dgp from the import until we have a tuned version (and example in the gallery)?
Other option is to leave it in here and open a new branch for tuning and updating the docstring

Maybe we want to exclude this DGP in a release until we have a notebook describing it?

yes I think this would be the best option
Description
With this PR we are adding estimators for treatment effects in regression discontinuity designs. The estimators enable covariate adjustments powered by ML. We add a module
doubleml.rddthat contains the estimator classRDFlexthat follows usual package syntax. We also add synthetic DGPs inrdd.datasets. Finally, we includedoubleml.rdd.global_learnerswhich adds the functionality to ignore sample weights inscikit-learnestimators. This is useful to combine global and local estimators in RDD.The new features are explained furtherly in the added documentation notebook.
Reference
The implementation follows this paper.
