Safe Rust wrappers for the CUDA Runtime API.

The Runtime API is "higher level" than the Driver API: contexts are implicit (each device has a primary context the runtime uses automatically), kernels are typically linked at build time by nvcc, and most operations dispatch to the current thread's current device. baracuda-runtime mirrors the Driver-side types where it makes sense ([Device], [Stream], [Event], [DeviceBuffer]) and uses the CUDA 12.0+ library API ([Library], [Kernel]) for loading PTX at runtime — the Driver-API equivalent of Module::load_ptx + Module::get_function.

Driver ↔ Runtime interop

CUstream and cudaStream_t are the same C type. With the driver-interop feature, Stream::as_raw_driver() and Event::as_raw_driver() return views usable by baracuda-driver APIs. See [interop].
