Change cheatsheet to clarify some alpaka structures #2241

Closed mehmetyusufoglu closed 4 months ago

mehmetyusufoglu commented 4 months ago

Some simple clarifications for the novice alpaka user are added to the cheatsheet and library file. Alpaka vector is a static array, Buffer is a dynamic array. Pitch is the allocated memory with padding (till the alignment point) and extent is actually dimensions.
