Sync rocthrust 5.7.1-2 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

[Cory Bloor]

Please sync rocthrust 5.7.1-2 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

This sync requires a FeatureFreeze exception. This package version requires rocm-hipamd 5.7.1 and would benefit from rocprim 5.7.1, which are being tracked in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rocm-hipamd/+bug/2058606 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rocprim/+bug/2060565, respectively.

# Why a new upstream version is necessary

1. The upstream version 5.3.3 predates support for the Radeon 7000 series of GPUs (added in 5.4.0). As this is a library used for High-Performance Computing and AI, support for modern hardware is very important.

2. The upstream ROCm 5.7.1 version was the last release of the ROCm 5 series. While both ROCm 5.3 and ROCm 5.7 are no longer supported upstream, there will be a much larger community using ROCm 5.7. Knowledge sharing within this larger community will be beneficial for the long-term maintenance of the noble release.

3. The versions of ROCm components included on Ubuntu Noble are very inconsistent. This FeatureFreeze exception is one of several that I will be filing in an attempt to get as much of the ROCm stack as possible onto the upstream 5.7.1 release. The narrower the range of versions, the better. Ubuntu does not have significant automated testing for the AMD GPU libraries, so it is safer to use versions that closely correspond to what upstream and Debian are using (as both do significant testing on these libraries).

4. The bugfixes for set_difference and set_intersection in 5.5.0 prevent the test suite from hanging at 100% GPU usage, which is nice.

# Other Notes

The build log (using rocm-hipamd 5.7.1-3 and rocprim 5.7.1-2) is attached and includes the build tests. The upstream change log is also attached.
