Description

Consider this issue in context of problem to transform RGB image to Grayscale image.

Solving it using cccl/c/parallel library involves ``cub::DeviceTransform`` to transform an array of `float` triplets to an array `float` values.

In Python, `cccl.parallel.experimental.algorithms.unary_transform` can be used. See https://gist.github.com/oleksandr-pavlyk/5bc2ebf62e15598fcae0cb98b65e38b0

It would be nice if one could just tell cuda.parallel to reinterpret CuPy array of shape `(n, 3)` as vector of `n` Pixel structs.
For efficiency purposes, the resulting reinterpreted structure must translate to `cccl_iterator_t` with type `CCCL_POINTER`.
