Description

It would make sense to add a wrapper around cuSOLVER. Note that the cudatoolkit 7.5 conda package (as of this issue) does not include the library and needs to be updated to include it. The cudatoolkit 8.0 package in the numba channel on Anaconda Cloud does already have cuSOLVER. (`conda install -c numba cudatoolkit`).

Research direction

Review how pyculib currently exposes CUDA libraries, then investigate adding cuSOLVER support and the cudatoolkit packaging dependency. Compare the cudatoolkit 7.5 package with the cuSOLVER-containing 8.0 package in the numba channel. Done means cuSOLVER is wrapped and the required toolkit package includes its library.
