muh-bot 2a7ca101d7 feat(cccl): integrate missing CCCL directories — python/, ci/, .agent/, docs/, test/
Sparse-checkout from NVIDIA/cccl main branch to complete cccl_upstream:

Added:
- python/cuda_cccl/ (226 files) — Python bindings for device-level algorithms
  Critical for muh toolchain: cuda.compute.reduce_into, scan, radix_sort, etc.
  Includes 204 .py files with full test coverage for all 27 algorithms
- ci/ (163 files) — Build/test infrastructure
  build_cub.sh, test_cub.sh, build_and_test_targets.sh, matrix.yaml
  Directly maps to our [INFRA-CI] and [INFRA-BUILD] items
- .agent/skills/ (7 files) — NVIDIA's own agent skills for CCCL
  cccl-style/SKILL.md, cccl-test/SKILL.md, sass-diff/SKILL.md
- docs/ (491 files) — Official CCCL documentation
  CI references, CMake guides, Python compute docs, libcudacxx PTX docs
- test/ (12 files) — Top-level integration tests (cuda_smoke, stdpar)
- Root configs: .clang-format, .clang-tidy, CONTRIBUTING.md, pyproject.toml
- CLAUDE.md symlink → AGENTS.md (NVIDIA's standard)

cccl_upstream now mirrors full NVIDIA/cccl structure:
  Before: 42M (cub + thrust + libcudacxx + cudax + c + examples + benchmarks)
  After:  53M (+python +ci +docs +.agent +test +configs)

This completes the CCCL base needed for:
- [muh-bench] items: ci/util/build_and_test_targets.sh for targeted builds
- [CCCL-verify] items: python/cuda_cccl/tests/ as reference implementations
- [CCCL-test] items: ci/test_cub.sh, ci/test_thrust.sh
- Agent workflow: .agent/skills/ for consistent style and test patterns

Exception Handling
==================
Standard C++ exception handling (``try``, ``catch``, ``throw``) is not supported in CUDA device code, while it is enabled by default in host code.
**Device code**
``libcu++`` maps exceptions to ``cuda::std::terminate()`` calls in device code, which translates to ``__trap()`` and terminates the kernel.
**Host code**
``libcu++`` allows users to manually disable exceptions in host code in two ways:
- By defining ``CCCL_DISABLE_EXCEPTIONS`` before including any library headers.
- By compiling with ``-fno-exceptions`` compiler flag with ``gcc`` or ``clang``, or ``/EH-`` compiler flag with ``msvc``.
If exceptions are disabled, a ``throw`` exception is translated into a `cuda::std::terminate() <https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/error/terminate.html>`__ call, which terminates the program.
``cuda::cuda_error``
--------------------
Exception class thrown when a CUDA error is encountered. It inherits from ``std::runtime_error``.
.. code-block:: cpp
class cuda_error : public std::runtime_error
{
public:
cuda_error(cudaError_t status, const char* msg);
cudaError_t status() const noexcept;
};
