cuQuantum Backend Integration
Optional NVIDIA cuQuantum acceleration for MPS operations.
Provides 2-10× speedup on compatible NVIDIA GPUs.
Features:
- cuTensorNet for tensor contractions and SVD
- cuStateVec for state-vector operations
- Automatic fallback to PyTorch if cuQuantum unavailable
- Version compatibility handling
