Address all CCCL deprecations

[chyunsu3]

Replace the umbrella CUB header <cub/cub.cuh> with individual headers. This fixes the deprecation warning

warning: <cub/cub.cuh> is an umbrella header that includes all CUB headers and can increase compile times.
To reduce compile times, replace <cub/cub.cuh> with headers for the CUB features used
(e.g., <cub/device/device_reduce.cuh> for cub::DeviceReduce). 

Replace deprecated CUB APIs. The following deprecated APIs from CUB have been replaced.

Deprecated API	Replacement
cub::CachingDeviceAllocator	cuda::device_memory_pool, with a separate pool for each device
cub::DispatchRadixSort	cub::DeviceRadixSort::SortPairs / SortPairsDescending
cub::DispatchSegmentedRadixSort	cub::DeviceSegmentedRadixSort::SortKeys / SortPairs
cub::DispatchScan	cub::DeviceScan::InclusiveScan

Use named functor AccumulateLeafSum to work around compiler warning about uninitialized data.
NVCC throws the following warning, probably a false positive:

Walkthrough

For newer CUB versions, sorting and scan wrappers use public APIs, while older versions retain internal dispatch paths. The device allocator uses CUDA memory pools when the required CUB and CUDA versions are available. GPU histogram code updates its scan selection and uses a named functor for leaf summation. Tests cover segmented key sorting and in-place inclusive scan. The CCCL and RMM nightly build scripts now treat compile warnings as errors.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to d7093

Cross-device QID metadata can release a temporary vector after the current device changes, so confirm allocator ownership before relying on this pool path. No failure is demonstrated, and the segmented-sort query concerns are resolved.

Macros should be a last resort - in many of these cases we can directly use the new algorithm. We already require CUDA 12.9, with CUB/Thrust 2.8.0.

Here is a summary:

Location	Recommendation
ArgSort	Remove the guard and old dispatch implementation. CUB 2.8’s public SortPairs / SortPairsDescending already support 64-bit counts.
InclusiveScan, including SortPositionBatch	Remove the guards and use DeviceScan::InclusiveScan directly. CUB 2.8 already selects 64-bit offsets for a 64-bit count.
DeviceSegmentedRadixSortKeys	Remove the guard. The public API exists in CUB 2.8, and this helper already takes int counts. Keep the copy that handles overlapping input/output.
DeviceSegmentedRadixSortPair	Keep the compatibility branch. The public API takes int counts in CUB 2.8 and 3.0; 3.1 adds 64-bit counts. Using it unconditionally would narrow large inputs on older supported versions.
cuda::device_memory_pool	Keep the CCCL version check, but remove CUDART_VERSION >= 13020. The pool needs newer CCCL headers, but using those headers does not require CUDA 13.2.
