* introduce new abstraction layer for GPU devices
* add unit test for device abstraction
* fix ruff
* convert TorchDeviceSelect into a stateless class
* move logic to select context-specific execution device into context API
* add mock hardware environments to pytest
* remove dangling mocker fixture
* fix unit test for running on non-CUDA systems
* remove unimplemented get_execution_device() call
* remove autocast precision
* Multiple changes:
1. Remove TorchDeviceSelect.get_execution_device(), as well as calls to
context.models.get_execution_device().
2. Rename TorchDeviceSelect to TorchDevice
3. Added back the legacy public API defined in `invocation_api`, including
choose_precision().
4. Added a config file migration script to accommodate removal of precision=autocast.
* add deprecation warnings to choose_torch_device() and choose_precision()
* fix test crash
* remove app_config argument from choose_torch_device() and choose_torch_dtype()
