Closes #905
Problem
The fit method raised a TypeError when cat_vars is None, but both
the docstring and documentation explicitly state that this step is
not necessary in the absence of categorical variables.
Fix
Replace the TypeError with a logging.warning() and early return,
consistent with the documented behaviour.
Testing
Added a unit test (test_mahalanobis_fit_no_cat_vars_warns_and_returns)
confirming fit() warns and returns early without raising, and that
d_abs remains unchanged.
