use_distance {distops}

Adds a distance function to the package

Description

This function adds a distance function to the package. It first creates the ⁠R/{distance_name}Distance.R⁠ file with the R wrapper function for the distance function. It then creates the ⁠src/{distance_name}Distance.cpp⁠ file with the C++ implementation of the distance function. It finally opens the latter file in the default editor. The user will be able to implement the desired distance function in a way compatible with the RcppParallel workflow.
