This fixes deprecated-copy warnings when compiling with GCC>=9
Also protect some additional Base-constructors from getting called by user code code (#1587)
This change re-instates the fast rational approximation of the logistic function for float32 in Eigen (removed in 66f07efeae), but uses the more accurate approximation 1/(1+exp(-1)) ~= exp(x) below -9. The exponential is only calculated on the vectorized path if at least one element in the SIMD input vector is less than -9.
This change also contains a few improvements to speed up the original float specialization of logistic:
- Introduce EIGEN_PREDICT_{FALSE,TRUE} for __builtin_predict and use it to predict that the logistic-only path is most likely (~2-3% speedup for the common case).
- Carefully set the upper clipping point to the smallest x where the approximation evaluates to exactly 1. This saves the explicit clamping of the output (~7% speedup).
The increased accuracy for tanh comes at a cost of 10-20% depending on instruction set.
The benchmarks below repeated calls
u = v.logistic() (u = v.tanh(), respectively)
where u and v are of type Eigen::ArrayXf, have length 8k, and v contains random numbers in [-1,1].

This also adds pset1frombits helper to Packet[24]d.
Makes round ~45% slower for SSE: 1.65µs ± 1% before vs 2.45µs ± 2% after,
stil an order of magnitude faster than scalar version: 33.8µs ± 2%.
The following commit introduces compile errors when running eigen with hipcc
2918f85ba9
hipcc errors out because it requies the device attribute on the methods within the TensorBlockV2ResourceRequirements struct instroduced by the commit above. The fix is to add the device attribute to those methods
* Force-inline implementations. They pass around pointers to shared memory
blocks. Without inlining compiler must operate via generic pointers.
Inlining allows compiler to detect that we're operating on shared memory
which allows generation of substantially faster code.
* Fixed a long-standing typo which resulted in launching 8x more kernels
than we needed (.z dimension of the block is unused by the kernel).
