Add a parameter `ymax` to `stats.boxcox_normmax`

Hi team,

We'd like to add a parameter `ymax` to `stats.boxcox_normmax`.
This parameter will not only control the magnitude of the transformed data
(addressing the overflow issue), but also give user the option to compute the 
unconstrained optimal lambda for Box-Cox transformation.

The default value of `ymax` is the maximum value of the input dtype, ensuring the 
transformed data does not cause overflow. If `ymax=np.inf`, users can compute the
unconstrained optimal lambda. Other positive values of `ymax` are also accepted 
for more flexibility.

Feel free to share your thoughts or any suggestions.

Best,
Xuefeng
