Description

@dpsanders has just released ReversePropagation.jl which is a tape-to-source scalar reverse mode AD using ChainRules.
We have reverse depenency testing setup for Zygote, to make certain no changes to ChainRules break that.
We should do the same thing for ReservePropagation.jl

This is blocked until ReversePropagation.jl is been registered.

Research direction

Start by finding the existing reverse-dependency testing setup for Zygote and check whether ReversePropagation.jl is registered. Add equivalent integration coverage once the dependency is available, and confirm the test runs without breaking ChainRules compatibility.
