Scalable GPU Acceleration of Scalar Functions in Analytical Databases: Compilation, Benchmarking, and Optimization

Summary: GPU acceleration for scalar functions in analytical DBs, not just relational ops. LLVM/MLIR toolchain auto-translates production CPU scalar-function code to efficient GPU kernels; new scalar-heavy TPC-H variant shows 7.6x/6.4x gains and hand-tuned parity.
