Ferjaoui a3c2ac1572 perf: range-scale and pedestal-centring options in the hist probe
For the cache-footprint experiments: --range-scale widens the bins
without changing n_bins, and --center subtracts each pixel's median so
neighbouring pixels share bins, while u16 frames keep their H2D size.

GPU performance probes

Nsight Systems probes for the CUDA classes: per-engine GPU time per frame (kernel, H2D, D2H), duty cycles and the roofline. One folder per class, each with its own driver, traced process, README and results/:

folder class
cf/ ClusterFinderCUDA
hist/ PixelHistogramCUDA

Shared by all of them:

file role
common.py paths (AARE_REPO, AARE_BUILD, AARE_PERF_DATA, NSYS), guards (fresh build, idle GPU), env.json stamp, results folder
gpu_span.py reads an nsys SQLite export: busy time, duty cycle and roofline per engine, optionally for one kernel name and a subset of engines only

Requirements (a CUDA build of the Python extension, Nsight Systems, the dataset, an idle GPU) are listed in each folder's README.
