[Rust CUDA] by [Riccardo D'Ambrosio] is a newly-released project with the goal

of making Rust a Tier-1 language for fast GPU computing. There are still many

bugs, and it's in an early stage.

With this release comes a few crates. `rustc_codegen_nvvm` for compiling Rust to

CUDA PTX code using rustc's custom codegen mechanisms and the `libnvvm` CUDA

library. `cust` for actually executing the PTX is a high-level wrapper for the

CUDA Driver API. `cuda_builder` for easily building GPU crates. `cuda_std` is

the GPU-side standard library which complements rustc_codegen_nvvm. `gpu_rand`

is a GPU-friendly random number generation. `nvvm` is high-level bindings to

libnvvm, and `ptx_compiler` is high-level bindings to the PTX compiler APIs,

which are currently incomplete. `find_cuda_helper` is for finding CUDA on the

system. There are many other works in progress.
