Inconsistent interface for weight-clipping

There's an inconsistent interface for methods that interact with weights.
For example, in sampling and in computing the quasi-objective function, weight clipping is applied when linear/quadratic range is supplied.
However, when computing energies in the forward method, no such option is available.
While computing energies without clipped weights does not impact gradient calculations, it can affect analysis.
Have I described the problem accurately @jquetzalcoatl ?
