Adds execution model

ExecutionModel

Operators are templated on an execution model which determines the backend for the dependency graph which executes them.

The Cuda model wraps the cudaGraph functionality (requires cuda 10+)

The Thread model wraps a Chase-Lev work stealing queue using std::jthreads (requires C++20)

The Serial model wraps a std::queue

The Cuda execution model has a host sub-model which can be either Thread or Serial, allowing operations to occur on device and host simultaneously

Operators consist of a team of implementations, each of which acts on a block/chunk of elements. Each implementation has a node in the relevant graph - nodes are executed as soon as their parents are complete. An operator object can use different implementations on different blocks/chunks - or they can all be the same. Applying an Operator applies all its constituent implementations - applying an implementation submits its kernel to the graph. Launching the graph executes the nodes according to the dependency structure.

Operators and Implementations are registered by inheriting from a CRTP registrar class which registers their create methods in a factory. This allows the implementations access to the relevant operator scope (e.g. for its argument types)
