Softplus Activation Function
Use Case: The Softplus function is a smooth approximation of the ReLU function.
For more detailed information, you can refer to the following link:

Implements the Softplus activation function.
Parameters:
vector (np.ndarray): The input array for the Softplus activation.
Returns:
np.ndarray: The input array after applying the Softplus activation.
Formula: f(x) = ln(1 + e^x)
Examples:
>>> softplus(np.array([2.3, 0.6, -2, -3.8]))
array([2.39554546, 1.03748795, 0.12692801, 0.02212422])
>>> softplus(np.array([-9.2, -0.3, 0.45, -4.56]))
