closes issue #562
This PR addresses a potential crash/undefined behavior where setting temperature=0.0 causes a division by zero in RandomSampling, TopkSampling, and TopPSampling.
Changes:
Added a guard clause to get_next_tokens in all three sampling classes.
If temperature < 1e-6, it now delegates to Greedy sampling (argmax), which is the expected behavior for zero temperature.
Added a unit test test_zero_temperature_behavior to _sampling_test.py to verify correctness.
This ensures deterministic output and prevents NaN or Inf values in logits when users explicitly request greedy decoding via temperature=0.0.
