Expands (sd_mult > 1) or reduces (sd_mult < 1) the standard deviation
of the Beta distribution. The Beta distribution has a maximum variance of
mean(x) * (1 - mean(x), where mean(x) = alpha / (alpha + beta). If the
inputs produce a desired variance that is greater than the maximum possible
variance, or provides alpha and/or beta parameters that are < 1 and thus
push more probability weight towards extreme probability values, this
function returns alpha = 1 and beta = 1 (the uniform distribution).
