#' Supporting Function for \code{\link{lpdensity}}
#'
#' \code{lpdensity_fn} implements the local polynomial density estimator. This
#'   function is for internal use, and there is no error handling or robustness check.
#'
#' Recommend: use \code{\link{lpdensity}}.
#'
#' @param data Numeric vector or one dimensional matrix/data frame, the raw data.
#' @param grid Numeric vector or one dimensional matrix/data frame, the grid on which
#'   density is estimated.
#' @param bw Numeric vector or one dimensional matrix/data frame, the bandwidth
#'   used for estimation. Should be strictly positive, and have the same length as
#'   \code{grid}.
#' @param p Integer, nonnegative, the order of the local-polynomial used to construct point
#'   estimates.
#' @param q Integer, nonnegative, the order of the local-polynomial used to construct
#'   confidence interval (a.k.a. the bias correction order).
#' @param v Integer, nonnegative, the derivative of distribution function to be estimated. \code{0} for
#'   the distribution function, \code{1} (default) for the density funtion, etc.
#' @param kernel, String, the kernel function, should be one of \code{"triangular"},
#'   \code{"uniform"} or \code{"epanechnikov"}.
#' @param massPoints Boolean, whether whether point estimates and standard errors
#'   should be corrected if there are mass points in the data.
#' @param Cweights Numeric vector or one dimensional matrix/data frame, the weights used
#'   for counterfactual distribution construction. Should have the same length as sample size.
#' @param Pweights Numeric vector or one dimensional matrix/data frame, the weights used
#'   in sampling. Should have the same length as sample size, and nonnegative.
#' @param showSE \code{TRUE} (default) or \code{FALSE}, whether standard errors should be computed.
#'
#' @return
#' \item{grid}{grid points.}
#' \item{bw}{bandwidth for each grid point.}
#' \item{nh}{Effective sample size for each grid point.}
#' \item{f_p}{Density estimates on the grid with local polynomial of order \code{p},
#'   with the same length as \code{grid}.}
#' \item{f_q}{Density estimates on the grid with local polynomial of order \code{q},
#'   with the same length as \code{grid}. This is reported only if \code{q} is greater than
#'   0.}
#' \item{se_p}{Standard errors corresponding to \code{hat_p}.}
#' \item{se_q}{Standard errors corresponding to \code{hat_q}. This is reported only
#'   if \code{q} is greater than 0.}
