Release 2.4.0

[tpadioleau]

Hi, can we release 2.4.0 ? That would help speeding up the compilation of our stack :)

[mknaranja]

Yes, of course. How would you summarize the changes made since 2.3.1?

Hi, I see we have these commits:

+ a96f932f15b223038fdb7b22601c258c64e824d4 Simplify testing, rely only the default backend of Kokkos (#306)

+ 70eb7c7dd06a15ae6696e0b5082c57e458f9edf2 Improve compile time by making benchmarks optional (#319)

I suggest this draft of changelog:

# Added

* New CMake option `GMGPOLAR_BUILD_BENCHMARKS` to improve compile time when installing the library
* Provide density profile coefficients from grid index

# Changed

* Run tests only once with the default backend of Kokkos

# Fixed

* Fixed missing inclusion of headers
* Fixed double `main` linking
* Fixed host data access from the device in a test
* Fixed unused OpenMP dependency requirement in installed cmake config file
* Fixed missing namespace for symbols of `enum class StencilDistributionMethod`

I did not cover the following items in the changelog because I don't fully understand them:

+ ebc8b2db7521cef7a959097664acf811b02caa08 Remove coeff_beta parameter from applyAscOrtho functions (#301)
+ 8e52bf22d637cde2feb3a9b53aabc981718eeca5 Remove Kokkos Class Lambdas Test Code (#311)
+ 66d796f1a98f8db90ee9120b5ef65aaba9dacc00 Remove unused detDF coefficient from applyAscOrtho (#314)

@EmilyBourne or @julianlitz can probably better say if they need to appear in the changelog.

You could add 313 if you want but the other are not relevant. All good

[mknaranja]

Thank you. Published. I will upload it on zenodo too.

[tpadioleau]

I forgot to mention you need to update the file CMakeLists.txt for the version
