bring back in a simple way to read weight files and load them to the device simple program to write the steering vector weights that have been used to produce beam patterns for dummy input time data that iare the angles for the beam pattern of a ULA. simple program to test loading those weights and use them in the same way that the test program does

user would set the rtbf context to a weight array and then call update weights. This was removed. Also, initialization of the beamformer would return the device weight memory in an indetermined state. The init now initializes the weights to all ones [CMPLXF(1.0, 0)] and then the user is to make a call to `update_weights` to change them. This allows the beamformer to at least not be completely broken initially. The update mechanics now have `update_weights` accepting an array of float values to load to the device. The idea is that the user creates some weights and manually update them and then they are to still be responsible to free that memory. simplified and improved the logic in `update_weight` to combine the conjugate transpose into one loop instead of across multiple temporary arrays. Two versions are left here and will follow up with a new commit that removes the second (because I think I personally favor the first implementation as it is more descriptive in its memory access).

use of `compiletime_info` struct in the library. Fix static mallocs that were larger than default stack parameters for large block testing. cleanup `cublas_beamformer.h` definitions

compile parameter names have changed to be more descriptive. still working on some of the size parameters. Working on a struct containing the compiled info. started working on registering host memory, stopped to get parameters changed and to have compiled info to compute sizes. this has the start of detecting if pinned memory regions overlap that seems to happen for small beamform sizes

functionality to update beamformer weights are what is left in `update_weights`. The ability to update from a file is still needed but should be provided as a way to populate memory and then call `update_weights` currently a call to init beamformer, with the `weights_h` set, without a call to `update_weights` will lead to bogus results that would be hard to identify. Need a way to safely know weights have been applied (or not).

different control flow for operation of rtbf. not sure if best way at the moment. Because in reality BEAM_RAW_OP doesn't need to be checked instead just dump the output. still more to do. already know need to remove the iq kernel but this is just a small incremental change.

header downsizes for a smaller example and beamformer adjusts magic numbers for setting up dimensions to support that. init method setups up the weights instead of only being loaded by a file, this makes `cublas_main` unusable but this is for setting up to verify output and be able to start making adjustments `testbeam` was meant to be `multibeam`. the new testbench sets up data using the time dimension as scanning angle to plot beam patterns. So each time element is an angle. beamformer weights are ULA and the angles chosen split up the number of beams. All the same data is in each channel

couldn't compile for cuda 11 using complex, needed to move to cuComplex change formatting of code start to adjust header definition for alpaca but ended up more with todo's and notes to try and understand what to do in moving from flag to onr to alpaca and be more flexible/standalone

flag beamformer library has always been part of a larger project, this strips that down to a separate repo and removing much of the other baggage additionally, a lot of changes have been made to adjust flag to onr but we need now need the beamformer to look more like flag and there was no tag or real commit to revert back
