Description
Currently the bulk APIs are host calls which operate on one map. We have a use case where we have multiple small maps defined on a slice of pre-allocated slot space. For this we duplicate the insert kernel code from cuco and initializing one map per block.
It would be nice to have cub style block level bulk APIs for initialize, insert etc.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked cuDF chunk_dict.cu example and the existing host bulk APIs in cuCollections. Determine the block-level initialization and insertion API scope, then identify the relevant implementation and test locations; done means block-based APIs support the stated multi-map use case with coverage for initialization and insertion.
