bedd818e - [SYCL][COMPAT] SYCLcompat dim and defs headers (#9976)

[SYCL][COMPAT] SYCLcompat dim and defs headers (#9976) This is an implementation of SYCLcompat, the stand alone library proposed in https://github.com/intel/llvm/pull/9646. Please, find the documentation there. SYCLcompat has two primary goals: - Improve the adoption of SYCL. This library is designed to provide a familiar programming interface that resembles other popular heterogeneous programming models. By reducing the learning curve, it enables developers to leverage SYCL's power and features more easily. - Source-to-Source Translation Support. SYCLcompat is also designed to facilitate automatic source-to-source translation from other heterogeneous programming models to SYCL and offer a more standardized and consistent programming interface. This feature can significantly streamline the migration and integration of existing codebases into the SYCL ecosystem The PR also includes tests. We were advised to include the tests as part of `sycl/unittests`, so we added a different mechanism to build them using `clang`. As we stated in the docs PR, we are open to any suggestions, concerns, or improvements you may have, so please, let us know if you have any. --------- Co-authored-by: Gordon Brown <gordon@codeplay.com> Co-authored-by: Joe Todd <joe.todd@codeplay.com> Co-authored-by: Pietro Ghiglio <pietro.ghiglio@codeplay.com> Co-authored-by: Ruyman Reyes <ruyman@codeplay.com> Co-authored-by: tomflinda <tomflinda@gmail.com>
