parse_flags_with_absl() only parses flags that start with --jax_. Other flags are only parsed when absl.app's main function runs. But that's too late for test cases: test cases need to have the number of generated cases chosen at module initialization time. Hence the --num_generated_cases flag wasn't doing anything. Oops. By renaming it it works once again.
It might make sense to stop using flags for the number of generated cases and only use environment variables. We defer that to a future change.
Fix many test cases that were shown to be broken with a larger number of test cases enabled.

JaxTestCase: set numpy_rank_promotion='raise' by default
PiperOrigin-RevId: 427896974
* Make check_dtypes, atol, and rtol keyword-only arguments in jax.test_util APIs.
Default to check_dtypes=True.
Remove explicit usages of check_dtypes=True from tests. This mostly just removes visual noise from tests. Testing for exact type equality is the sensible default, although there are cases where opting out makes sense.
No functional changes intended.
* Fix a number of lax reference implementations to preserve types.
* Improve JAX test PRNG APIs to fix correlations between test cases.
In #2863, we observed that we were missing gradient problems because the random test cases being generated were too similar because they were formed with identically seeded PRNGs. This change updates the test_util.rand_...() functions to take an explicit numpy.random.RandomState, and adds a rng() method to JaxTestCase to form a RandomState seeded on the test case name.
This gives the following properties:
* different test cases receive different seeds
* PRNG seeding is deterministic and independent of execution order and sharding.
* PRNG seeding is deterministic across runs.
* Fix some failing tests.
* Fix more test failures.
Simplify ediff1d implementation and make it more permissive when casting.
* Relax test tolerance of laplace CDF test.
