Construct an unknown conditional distribution.

Unknown conditional distribution are used for to provide the user with a formal way of writing correct decomposition, but are not intended to produce any numerical results (i.e the inferred expressions do not contain the P(v) term). All methods applied to this distribution will result into an error. Excepted for the method instantiate which will return an Unknown distribution. Unknown distribution are used to build descriptions (joint distributions). Inference (using "ask" method) using this joint distribution should always contain all the set of "left" variables into their known variables. {itemize} left is the set of variables on which the distribution applies. right is the set of variables which conditionalize the distribution. {itemize}
