Add a new UR_DEVICE_INFO enum for checking bfloat16 native conversion in unified_runtime

[jinge90]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

SYCL runtime need to check whether underlying device supports native bfloat16 conversion to provide better performance for bfloat16 code in GPU device, this is done by checking "cl_intel_bfloat16_conversions" string. We need to switch to use urDeviceGetInfo API to query such hardware information. Currently, we don't have a UR device info enum for native bfloat16 which is equivalent to "cl_intel_bfloat16_conversions."

Hi, @steffenlarsen
The issue for UR device info enum for native bfloat16 conversions is created here.
Thanks very much.

@jinge90 given you mention "cl_intel_bfloat16_conversions" which is an OpenCL extension string, is this query specific to OpenCL or should it be backend agnostic?

Hi, @kbenzie
This should be backend agnostic, no matter what backend used(OpenCL or Level Zero), user should be able to use native bfloat16 conversions if the hardware supports.

Thanks very much.

@jinge90 I've assigned this to yourself since you've opened #17372

Closing now that #17372 has been merged.
