ENH: add covers() method to GeoSeries/GeoDataFrame

See original GitHub issue

Of all the spatial predicate methods (intersects, contains, within, crosses, etc), we are missing covers.

This can be added to GeoSeries/GeoDataFrame in geopandas/base.py (it’s already added to the GeometryArray).

In principle, we could also add a “covered_by” method. But this is a bit more tricky since it is missing in shapely (but it is already available in pygeos).

@bhavika I only see now your comment above about GEOSCoveredBy not being properly exposed / the segfault. I also see that locally, but I think you best post that in the Shapely PR, as the people there might have more insight on this.
