HIP support

[psychocoderHPC]

I am currently working on a native version for HIP https://github.com/psychocoderHPC/picongpu/tree/topic-hip-amd-benachmark/thirdParty/mallocMC.

This is only a prototype, I will port it soon to CUPLA to support different backend e.g. CUDA/HIP and CPU.

for the record: @saipavankalyan also started to port mallocMC and reported linker issues with HIP-hcc ROCm/hip#1849

Currently the cmake is not updated

https://github.com/psychocoderHPC/mallocMC/tree/topic-hip-port contains now support for all variations of HIP. ATTENTION: HIP-hcc uses a workaround where the mallocMC heap is not freed when the heap object is destructed. I added the support only as proof of work, you should not use HIP-hcc anymore.

• HIP-nvcc

cmake ../mallocMC/ -D mallocMC_HIP_PLATFORM=nvcc
make -j examples

• HIP-clang

cmake ../mallocMC/ -D mallocMC_HIP_PLATFORM=clang
make -j examples

• HIP-hcc

cmake ../mallocMC/ -D mallocMC_HIP_PLATFORM=hcc
make -j examples

We can close this, right?
