Awkward Array C++ Kernels

awkward-cpp provides the highly optimized C++ and CUDA kernels and compiled extensions that power the Awkward Array library (version 2.x). It serves as a performance backend, enabling NumPy-like idioms for nested, variable-sized data structures to run at compiled speeds. The library itself is not intended for direct end-user interaction but is a core dependency of the main `awkward` package. It is currently at version 52 and maintains an active release cadence aligned with `awkward` releases.
