TopK Bitonic Claude Opus 5

"""Custom CUDA top-k (values + int64 indices, descending) for RTX PRO 6000 / sm_120.

One kernel launch per call.  Each warp owns a descending priority queue of the K
best keys it has seen, spread one slot per lane (K = 32 for k <= 32, K = 64 as
two slots per lane for k <= 64), and streams its slice of the row through it:

  * a ballot against the current k-th best key skips a batch outright, which is
    the common case once the queue is warm;
  * survivors are appended to a K-slot staging buffer in shared memory at a
    ballot-derived offset, which costs one store and no cross-lane latency;
  * when the buffer fills it is bitonic-sorted ascending and merged into the
    queue elementwise, which needs no shuffles for the merge itself because
    ascending B at position p is exactly descending B at K-1-p.  The threshold
    rises fast enough that a warp streaming N elements drains the buffer only
    O(log(N/K)) times.

Latency, not bandwidth, is what this kernel spends: the input read is free at
these sizes, so the layout is chosen to keep each warp's dependent shuffle
chain short and the merge funnel shallow.  Warp queues reduce to a block queue
through shared memory, and when a row is split over several blocks the last one
to arrive (threadfence + atomic counter) merges the per-split partials, so the
whole top-k is still a single launch.

Values become monotone uint32 keys carried alongside their element index, so
the ordering is exact for every float bit pattern in the input and ties break
deterministically.
