Research direction

Start by tracing where CMAKE_CUDA_HOST_COMPILER is required in BLT's CMake configuration and review the related Ascent issue 1508 for context. Determine whether the requirement is still necessary for the CUDA support update; done means the requirement is justified or removed based on the findings.
