Add gpu runners

[maartenarnst]

We should consider to add gpu runners so that we can better test tools.

This seems especially important to be able to work on PRs like:

• Energy profiling tools: NVML-based measurement tool #301

Perhaps we could discuss in a developer meeting whether one of the kokkos runners could be added to kokkos-tools?

@maartenarnst I agree with adding GPU runners - this was discussed in previous PRs about a year ago with @romintomasetti in addition to the one you referenced. Getting a GPU runner (or two)would also benefit tests for the Kokkos Tools tpl GPU profiling connectors like the nvtx-connector and roctx-connector.

While this isn't a big blocker at the moment, and we can of course test on our own GPUs, I think Kokkos Tools PR #301 - which in some sense is also doing energy monitoring as I see it - makes a good case for it.

This would also benefit other libraries like the Kokkos Tools LDMS connector for Kokkos application performance monitoring.
