Description: Implements the algorithm by Pourahmadi and Wang (2015)
        <doi:10.1016/j.spl.2015.06.015> for generating a random p x p
        correlation matrix. Briefly, the idea is to represent the
        correlation matrix using Cholesky factorization and p(p-1)/2
        hyperspherical coordinates (i.e., angles), sample the angles
        from a particular distribution and then convert to the standard
        correlation matrix form. The angles are sampled from a
        distribution with pdf proportional to sin^k(theta) (0 < theta <
        pi, k >= 1) using the efficient sampling algorithm described in
        Enes Makalic and Daniel F. Schmidt (2018) <arXiv:1809.05212>.
