Fixes #9580 .
As of right now the CUDA backend reports that for FlashAttention a head size of 256 is only supported for NVIDIA GPUs that are Volta or newer. However, for AMD GPUs and old NVIDIA GPUs a head size of 256 can also be enabled if the vector kernel is used for large batch sizes. The performance won't be great but it will be faster than CPU. This PR adapts the CUDA code to enable this.
Also I noticed that the tests were only testing batch sizes < 8 which meant that some CUDA kernels were not being invoked at all. I changed the batch sizes to cover a wider range.
