AMD ROCm 10.1 adds hipFILE fast-path, NUMA memory and LLVM 24

hipFileReadAsync() and hipFileWriteAsync() run directly on a HIP stream, skipping host-memory staging
NUMA placement via hipMemLocationTypeHostNuma cuts inter-socket transfer penalties
ROCm CLI v1.0.0 ships as a single binary for Linux, Windows and WSL2 with a TUI dashboard
Toolchain upgraded to LLVM 24; ROCm SMI removed in favor of amd-smi
