ViperEkura 5244f1a8fc feat: add te-style scaled fp8 training via fp8_autocast
- per-tensor scales applied inside cublasLt via A_SCALE/B_SCALE
- delayed scaling: weight amax history ring, refresh every 16 steps
- quantize kernels emit atomic amax, device-side scale updates
- fp8_autocast context toggles aten::linear dispatch like torch.autocast
- fallback to bf16 when M/N not 16-aligned (fp8 gemm constraint)
- x/g scales delayed one step, reuse free atomic amax (no abs/max reduce)

"""FP8 matrix-multiply op (torch.library custom_op) and FP8 linear replacement.
Dispatch table:
- Meta (register_fake): shapes only, for torch.compile / dynamic shapes
- CUDA: csrc fp8_mm kernel (cuBLASLt TN fp8 GEMM, e4m3 in, fp32 acc/out)
- CPU: fp32 fallback (testing)
- AutogradCUDA (register_autograd): bf16 backward, scale-corrected
