This is an internal function. No check is done on the structure of <code>X</code>.

Evaluates moments of ratios (and products) of quadratic forms
in normal variables, specifically using recursive algorithms developed by
Bao and Kan (2013) <doi:10.1016/j.jmva.2013.03.002> and Hillier et al.
(2014) <doi:10.1017/S0266466613000364>. Also provides distribution,
quantile, and probability density functions of simple ratios of quadratic
forms in normal variables with several algorithms. Originally developed as
a supplement to Watanabe (2023) <doi:10.1007/s00285-023-01930-8> for
evaluating average evolvability measures in evolutionary quantitative
genetics, but can be used for a broader class of statistics. Generating
functions for these moments are also closely related to the top-order zonal
and invariant polynomials of matrix arguments.
