Generalized Wendland covariance function for a polygons.

Computing the Matern covariance function between polygons.

comp_gw_cov(cross_dists, n, n2, sigsq, phi, kappa, mu)

`cross_dists`	a `list` such that each position contains the cross distances between points within different polygons.
`n`	an integer representing number of polygons (note that, this is different than the size of the list `cross_dists`
`n2`	usually, equal to `n`, except when the function is being used to calculate the "cross" covariance between two different partitions of the same space.
`sigsq`	the `\sigma^2` variance of the covariance function function.
`phi`	the `\phi` is the range parameter of the covariance function.
`kappa`	`\kappa \in \{0, \ldots, 3 \}`.
`mu`	`\mu` controls the smoothness of the covariance function
