[doc] Compile CUDA with LLVM
Summary: This patch adds documentation on compiling CUDA with LLVM as requested by many engineers and researchers. It includes not only user guides but also some internals (mostly optimizations) so that early adopters can start hacking and contributing. Quite a few researchers who contacted us haven't used LLVM before, which is unsurprising as it hasn't been long since LLVM picked up CUDA. So I added a short summary to help these folks get started with LLVM. I expect this document to evolve substantially down the road. The user guides will be much simplified after the Clang integration is done. However, the internals should continue growing to include for example performance debugging and key areas to improve.
