- Update README documentation with correct operation names
- Clean up parameter naming in epilogue_chainer.hpp (OutWindow, AccTile,
AuxWindows)

CastAndStoreToLdsOp,
  LoadFromLdsOp, ElementwiseOp, StoreOp, MoveWindowsOp)

* Added an optional template parameter `Arch` (`gfx9_t`, `gfx12_t` etc.) to `make_kernel` to support linking multiple object files that have the same kernel compiled for different architectures.
* FMHA examples and tests can be built for multiple architectures (gfx9, gfx950, gfx12) at the same time.
### Upcoming changes
