OpenCL version about viper HOT 3 OPEN

We're not actively developing this codebase, so we don't have plans to add this. I think that unless there is some way to make thrust, or some drop-in replacement work with an OpenCL backend (some discussion on that here), it would likely require a lot of the simulation code to be rewritten.

I'm happy to answer questions about how the code works if someone is interested in doing this.

what about this?

That seems like it could work. It will depend on the HIP stuff playing nicely with Eigen, but if it does I don't recall any other NVIDIA-specific things besides thrust that would cause problems.

If someone with an AMD gpu can confirm that it builds and runs, I could probably add an option for it to the build system.
