To run under emulation through ESIMD_EMULATOR backend:
> `$ SYCL_DEVICE_FILTER=ext_intel_esimd_emulator:gpu ./a.out`
Please note that ESIMD_EMULATOR backend cannot be picked up as default
device automatically. To enable it, `ext_intel_esimd_emulator:gpu` device must
be specified among other devices explicitly in `SYCL_DEVICE_FILTER` environment
variable. The emulator device effectively replaces any Intel GPU device for SYCL runtime,
so they can't be used simultaneously by a SYCL offload application process. On the other
hand, it is OK to mix the emulator with non-Intel GPU devices or CPU device in
`SYCL_DEVICE_FILTER`.
