DCompute is an extension to LDC capable of generating code

CUDA, SPIRV for use with the OpenCL runtime, and of course the
host, all at the same time! It is also possible to share
implementation of algorithms across the host and device.
This will enable writing kernels in D utilising all of D's meta
programming goodness across the device divide and will allow
launching those kernels with a level of ease on par with CUDA's

this ;), what it enables us to do, what still needs to be done
and future plans.
Great work.
