Description

Declares gmx::HostAllocationPolicy, gmx::HostAllocator, and gmx::HostVector, which are used to make/be standard library containers that can allocate memory suitable for transfers. Currently the only supported transfers using pinned memory are to CUDA GPUs, but other possibilities exist in future.

Todo:

This should not be in the public API, but it needs to be for the moment because state.h is in that API.
