[CK_TILE][FMHA] Fix sink un-mask under right-window and emit
 fp8bf16 batch_prefill sink kernels (#6914)

## Summary

Two related fixes to `ck_tile` FMHA so that StreamLLM-sink +
sliding-window
  batch-prefill works correctly for fp8 KV / bf16 compute.

  Review the commits in this order:

  1. `fmha: emit sink kernels for fp8bf16 batch_prefill`
Extends `example/ck_tile/01_fmha/codegen/ops/fmha_batch_prefill.py` so
     the fp8(KV) / bf16(QO) batch-prefill codegen also emits the
`mask=mask_enum::generic_with_sink` variant. Without this the runtime
     could not dispatch to a sink-aware kernel for the fp8bf16 path.

  2. `fmha: respect right-window in IsOutOfSinkBound`
The sink un-mask in `GenericAttentionMask::IsOutOfSinkBound` (local-mask
branch) used `(i_y + x) > 1` as the gate, which conditioned on the row
     index instead of the column index. As a result, queries `1..sink-1`
could attend to *future* sink positions (violating causal /
right-window),
while query `0` fell back to the plain causal mask. The fix replaces the
guard with `i_x < i_y + x` so every query only sees sink columns up to
     its own right-window boundary.

  3. `fmha: clarify IsOutOfSinkBound predicate comment`
Doc-only follow-up that rewrites the comment above the predicate as a
     clause-by-clause explanation (`i_x < sink`, `i_x < i_y + x`,
     `y < y_total`, `i_y < x_total`).

  ## Test plan

- [x] Repro on aiter `op_tests/test_batch_prefill.py` (fp8 +
bf16_dequant
        modes with `sink=4`, `win_left=1023`, `softcap=0.0`, `sal=True`)
        now passes for all parametrized shapes.
- [x] Existing fp16/bf16 batch-prefill paths (no sink) unchanged —
codegen
diff only adds the `generic_with_sink` variant for fp8bf16; existing
        kernel object lists unaffected.

CK Tile Example Suite

This directory contains a comprehensive suite of examples demonstrating the CK Tile programming model for high-performance GPU kernels. Each example illustrates a key deep learning or HPC operation, implemented using tile-based parallelism, modular pipelines, and data movement policy.


What is CK Tile?

CK Tile is a composable GPU programming API that expresses kernels as a composition of "tiles"—rectangular blocks of computation and data movement. The pipeline & policy orchestrates data movement (global <-> LDS <-> registers), computation, and synchronization, enabling high efficiency and flexibility.
