Description

Automate the publishing of documentation to keep it upto date.

https://github.com/NVIDIA/cuCollections/pull/177#issuecomment-1160655675
main branch is not updated in long time (July 16, 2020)
dev branch is updated frequently. There are no releases or tags.
So decide when to publish the documentation and which branch.

Describe the solution you'd like
Similar to thrust, add a GitHub workflow to generate and publish documentation to gh-pages
https://github.com/NVIDIA/thrust/blob/main/.github/workflows/deploy-documentation-github-pages.yml

Research direction

Start by reviewing the referenced Thrust workflow at .github/workflows/deploy-documentation-github-pages.yml and the existing documentation generation setup in cuCollections. Decide which branch and publishing trigger reflect the repository's update pattern, then add a workflow that publishes generated documentation to gh-pages and verify the deployment path.
