Description

We currently expect cusparse to provide standard spmv capability but the raft cusparse wrappers are hidden behind the the detail API. We should expose an "official" (stable) public API for computing an spmv.

cuOpt is requesting this for csr, so we should start there.

Research direction

Start by locating the hidden RAFT cuSPARSE wrappers and the existing spmv entry point. The work is done when CSR sparse matrix-vector multiplication is available through an official stable public API rather than only the detail API; the issue does not name specific files or tests.
