Description

This is a request from OpenSearch for CAGRA to accept binary quantized vectors which also have residual codes associated with them so that they can perform ADC (assymmetric distance computation). The new datasets API in https://github.com/rapidsai/cuvs/pull/1846 should enable the ability to use different datasets.

Research direction

Start by reading the new datasets API in cuVS pull request #1846 and tracing how CAGRA currently receives vector datasets. Define how binary quantized vectors with associated residual codes should be accepted for asymmetric distance computation; done means CAGRA can use this dataset form for ADC.
