Improve performance of diagnostic edmf

[charleskawczynski]

Diagnostic edmf performance is slow, and we need to identify the issue and improve the performance.

Here is a nsight report:

from this build: https://buildkite.com/clima/climaatmos-target-gpu-simulations/builds/250 (from #2846)

Zooming into ldiv! and set_precomputed_quantities!

shows that there are many, many kernel launches in set_precomputed_quantities!. So, this is likely due to the loop in set_diagnostic_edmf_precomputed_quantities_do_integral!. We can add more NVTX annotations to confirm, but this is what I suspected and it makes sense based on the report.

Could we look at the gpu_hs_rhoe_equil_55km_nz63_0M job in that build first? Comparing that with the one in the main branch shows a significant slowdown in set_precomputed_quantities! due to get_cloud_fraction.

[charleskawczynski]

Yes, of course. Which two builds are we comparing? Maybe we can add the option to do set_cloud_fraction! per stage vs per step/callback, so that we can merge an example into main. I'll try to do this now.

I'm not working on this, but I did open up the nvtx report with more annotations and can confirm that the issue is the large number of kernel launches in the integral function:

zoomed out:

I need to confirm (nsight systems crashed on me), but I think these ranges are on the gpu, in which case 60% of the time spent step! is in set_diagnostic_edmf_precomputed_quantities_do_integral! (for a non-radiation step!). If not, I know that when I clicked on the range that a pretty large number of kernels was highlighted.
