[FEA] Expose additional distance metrics to hdbscan #5301

With the changes in https://github.com/rapidsai/cuml/pull/5293 - we can have hdbscan use all of the distance metrics we support in the raft pairwise distance api, instead of just the euclidean distance it is using right now.

We should expose the remaining distances to the public api for hdbscan, so that users can choose which metric they use
