Research direction

Start by locating the build configuration and the files used to represent unsupported backends in RAJAPerf. Trace why empty files are required during a build, then identify the relevant build checks and existing backend tests. Done means unsupported backends build successfully without placeholder empty files, while supported backends remain unaffected.
