Issue:
directed_edge_swap: ZeroDivisionError when passing a digraph without edges
I was working on improving test coverage for `swap.py` and tested `directed_edge_swap` with a digraph without edges. That resulted in a ZeroDivisionError from `nx.utils.cumulative_distribution`. 

### Steps to Reproduce

```python
from networkx as nx

G = nx.DiGraph()
G.add_nodes_from([0, 2, 4, 3])

G = nx.directed_edge_swap(G, nswap=1, max_tries=500, seed=1)
```
### Current Behavior

ZeroDivisionError is raised because in `nx.utils.cumulative_distribution` there's a division by the sum of the input distribution that is zero. The distribution that `nx.utils.cumulative_distribution` is called with in this example is the degrees of a digraph without edges (all degrees are zero). This is the error log. 

```
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 12, in <module>
    G = nx.directed_edge_swap(G, nswap=1, max_tries=500, seed=1)
  File "/home/paula/Outreachy/networkX/networkx/networkx/utils/decorators.py", line 766, in func
    return argmap._lazy_compile(__wrapper)(*args, **kwargs)
  File "<class 'networkx.utils.decorators.argmap'> compilation 21", line 5, in argmap_directed_edge_swap_17
  File "/home/paula/Outreachy/networkX/networkx/networkx/algorithms/swap.py", line 81, in directed_edge_swap
    cdf = nx.utils.cumulative_distribution(degrees)  # cdf of degree
  File "/home/paula/Outreachy/networkX/networkx/networkx/utils/random_sequence.py", line 103, in cumulative_distribution
    cdf.append(cdf[i] + distribution[i] / psum)
ZeroDivisionError: division by zero
```
### Expected Behavior

I think the best is to raise an exception in `directed_edge_swap` with a message that exposes this situation.  Also, this should be added to the [doc entry](https://output.circle-artifacts.com/output/job/ab098af6-f76c-4bf9-a732-5c243aca96da/artifacts/0/doc/build/html/reference/algorithms/generated/networkx.algorithms.swap.directed_edge_swap.html#directed-edge-swap). 

### Environment

Python version: 3.8
NetworkX version: 2.8.7

### Further Discoveries

Something else that should be added is that if the digraph has less than 3 edges then is impossible to swap edges. In that case, the current behavior is that the max number of tries is reached. In my opinion, this case should raise an exception with an appropriate message. Also, this could be mentioned in the  [doc entry](https://output.circle-artifacts.com/output/job/ab098af6-f76c-4bf9-a732-5c243aca96da/artifacts/0/doc/build/html/reference/algorithms/generated/networkx.algorithms.swap.directed_edge_swap.html#directed-edge-swap). 

I will work on these changes and will look closely at the other functions in `swap.py`. 
Also, I think it will be good to review the functions that use `nx.utils.cumulative_distribution` to check for this error. I can do that too.
