[RFC]: Chebyshev distance between two strided arrays

[Planeshifter]

Description

This RFC proposes adding a function to calculate the Chebyshev distance between two strided arrays.

Package: @stdlib/math/strided/distances/chebyshev

The function should have the following signature chebyshev ( N, x, strideX, y, strideY ).

• N: Number of elements
• x: First array
• strideX: Stride for the first array
• y: Second array
• strideY: Stride for the second array

The function should return the Chebyshev distance between the two arrays. The Chebyshev distance is also known as the maximum metric. It is calculated by taking the maximum of the absolute differences between the elements.
