Description

I think this will make the configs much easier to manage overall, especially since we are breaking the benchmarks out into separate executables/targets to parallelize the builds and match the build design of the googletests/prims benchmarks more consistently.

I suppose in a way it could also make them harder to manage since it becomes a little harder to compare algorithm parameters side by side, but I think this might not be that bad overall.

Research direction

Start by locating the CUDA ann-benchmark configuration directories and the existing executable or target definitions mentioned in the issue. Compare them with the googletests and prims benchmark layouts, then define separate algorithm-based config directories and confirm that the parallelized targets still use the intended parameters.
