Description: Estimates the directed Kullback-Leibler divergence between
        two bivariate continuous distributions by numerical integration
        of kernel density estimates. Also computes pairwise divergences
        among groups and exact divergences for discrete, bivariate
        normal, bivariate Pareto type II, and independent bivariate
        Weibull models. The kernel estimator follows Chackochan,
        Sankaran and Nair (2026) <doi:10.1080/03610926.2025.2496687>.
