This PR removes template parameter
is_ascending
from radix sort functions and introduces it as function call argument instead.This halves the binary size due to reduction in device code portion. Furthermore, radix sorting functions are singled out into a dedicated Python module
_tensor_sorting_radix_impl
further reducing the build time and memory footprint and provide increased parallelization opportunities to the linker.The overall build time drops from 45 minutes to 33 minutes on my Core i7 laptop.
