[CK_TILE] Add the GEMM Memory pipeline to Stream-K tests
 (#5242)

## Motivation

We want to extend our Stream-K coverage to include other GEMM pipeline
since our current tests only test the CompV3 pipeline.

## Technical Details

All Stream-K unit tests currently only tests one pipeline: CompV3. These
changes extend the test support to also test the Memory pipeline. Future
work will add support for additional GEMM pipelines.

The major changes are as follows:
- **Remove of fp8 and bf8 extended tests for gfx90a**: gfx90a does not
have native support for fp8 and bf8 and emulate the behavior with fp32
mfma instruction sizes. We've observed extremely long compile times for
fp8 and bf8 on gfx90a (exceeding 15 minutes), hence we've opted to
disable these tests.
- **Add the memory pipeline to the Stream-K tile engine tests**: Now our
smoke tests covers compv3 and memory pipelines.
- **Add the memory pipeline to the Stream-K extended tests**: These
changes modify the test kernel types to include the appropriate
pipeline. Each pipeline is contained within a separate kernel type to
help avoid large increases in build time.

## Test Plan

- Ran existing and added tests on all architectures.

## Test Result

- All local tests pass.

CK Tile Testing Guide

This document describes the test organization and available test targets for CK Tile operations.

Overview

CK Tile tests are organized with multiple levels of granularity to support different development workflows:

  1. Global test labels - Run tests across all operations
  2. Operation-specific umbrella targets - Run all tests for a specific operation
  3. Individual test executables - Run specific tests

Global Test Labels

These targets run tests across all CK operations (not just CK Tile):

ninja smoke

Run fast smoke tests (tests that complete within ~30 seconds on gfx90a).

ninja smoke

ninja regression

Run slower, more comprehensive regression tests.

ninja regression

ninja check

Run ALL available tests in the entire codebase.

ninja check

Operation-Specific Umbrella Targets

These targets allow you to run all tests for a specific CK Tile operation. This is useful when making changes to a particular operation and wanting to validate all related tests without running the entire test suite.

GEMM Operations

ck_tile_gemm_tests

Run all basic GEMM pipeline tests (memory, compute variants, persistent, etc.)

ninja ck_tile_gemm_tests

Test executables included:

  • test_ck_tile_gemm_pipeline_mem

  • test_ck_tile_gemm_pipeline_compv4
  • test_ck_tile_gemm_pipeline_persistent
  • test_ck_tile_gemm_pipeline_compv6
  • test_ck_tile_gemm_pipeline_comp_async (gfx95 only)
  • test_ck_tile_gemm_pipeline_*_wmma variants (gfx11/gfx12 only)

ck_tile_gemm_block_scale_tests
