Description

Extension of the prebuilt API to be able to load prebuilt kernels stored in JAR files.

Example:

 TaskGraph taskGraph = new TaskGraph("reftg")
      .transferToDevice(DataTransferMode.EVERY_EXECUTION, problemDimensions, problemParameters, doubleTimes, doubleValues, doubleWeights,  doubleFreqs, tsIdPerFreq)
    .prebuiltTask("t1",             // task name
        "sampleKernel",         // kernel nme
                  MyJavaClass.class,   // class accessible from the JAR file that contains the resource 
        "myKernel.ptx",          // name of the kernel file
        new Object[] { problemDimensions, problemParameters, doubleTimes, doubleValues, doubleWeights,  doubleFreqs, tsIdPerFreq, doubleAmplitudes, doubleDebug }, //
        new Access[] { Access.READ_ONLY, Access.READ_ONLY, Access.READ_ONLY,Access.READ_ONLY,Access.READ_ONLY, Access.READ_ONLY, Access.READ_ONLY, Access.WRITE_ONLY, Access.WRITE_ONLY }, //
        preferredDevice, //
        new int[] { nThreads })
         .transferToHost(DataTransferMode.EVERY_EXECUTION, doubleAmplitudes, doubleDebug);

This API access is required by GAIA for the project AERO. We may also simplify this API in future versions, since the main purpose was for debugging, not for running production code.

I am going to convert this to a draft PR because this extension might go well after PR #487

I am closing this PR. Instead, the new version is available in #505
