wgpu-nufft 0.3.0

GPU plans in up to eight dimensions, and one deterministic spreader for
every type-1 plan, faster in every rank and for sparse and clustered
points; see CHANGELOG.md.

Highlights:

  • Type 1, 2 and 3 GPU plans in six to eight dimensions, in all three
    precisions; the 4D and 5D paths are rewritten.
  • Every type-1 plan spreads through one rank-generic block spreader with
    bitwise-repeatable sums. It bins points by the first cell of their kernel
    support, chooses its bins per execution from the point density, and
    splits crowded blocks across many workgroups.
  • Large bins sort several times faster, and F64 kernel weights evaluate
    faster.
  • F64 and Df64 type-2 plans in one to three dimensions interpolate binned
    points.
  • F32 plans reject tolerances their rounding would miss
    (NufftError::F32ToleranceUnreachable).
  • A standalone browser build, wgpu_web.js, is attached to this release.

Fixed:

  • The rank-generic spreader compiles with FXC on DX12.

Known limitations:

  • On DX12 with FXC, Df64 plans take minutes to create, mostly in the Df64
    FFT shaders; on Windows, prefer Vulkan for Df64 plans.
  • 7D and 8D plans are practical only on small grids at tolerances near
    1e-3; see "Higher dimensions" in the README.
  • Metal has not been tested.
