   This function calculates the Chebyshev distance (also known as the
   Chessboard distance) between two n-dimensional points represented as lists.

   >>> chebyshev_distance([1.0, 1.0], [2.0, 2.0])
   1.0
   >>> chebyshev_distance([1.0, 1.0, 9.0], [2.0, 2.0, -5.2])
   14.2
   >>> chebyshev_distance([1.0], [2.0, 2.0])
