Implement decorators to register benchmarks add axis and options (#347)

* Add decorators for registering benchmarks and adding axis

cuda.bench.register(fn) continues returning Benchmark, and supports
legacy use.

New signature added:
   cuda.bench.register():
      Returns a decorator

```
@bench.register()
@bench.axis.float64("Duration (s)", [7e-5, 1e-4, 5e-4])
@bench.option.min_samples(120)
def single_float64_axis(state: bench.State):
   ...
```

* Remove example/auto_throughput.py

The C++ counterpart's purpose is to demonstrate use of CUPTI
metrics, but these are not supported in Python bindings, so
this example is a duplicate of example/throughput.py

* Add wrong decorator order test for bench.axis.*

* Strengthen type annotation for register function

Acting on code rabbit nit-pick require that function being
registered take cuda.bench.State object as an argument.

Verified the fix as

```
(py313) :~/repos/nvbench/python$ python -m mypy --ignore-missing-import /tmp/t.py
/tmp/t.py:8: error: Argument 1 has incompatible type "Callable[[], None]"; expected "Callable[[State], None]"  [arg-type]
Found 1 error in 1 file (checked 1 source file)
(py313) :~/repos/nvbench/python$ nl -ba /tmp/t.py
     1  # /tmp/check_nvbench_register.py
     2  import cuda.bench as bench
     3
     4  @bench.register()
     5  def good(state: bench.State) -> None:
     6      pass
     7
     8  @bench.register()
     9  def bad() -> None:
    10      pass
```

* Replace use of global variable with thread-safe lru_cache

This improves thread-safety of module initialization.

* Abide by RUF005 linting rule

* Expand docstrings regarding cuda.bench.register() decorator

It explains to the user what the decorator does and provides
a concise usage example.

* Sharpen wording on exception maybe-thrown by decorator
