Extend `accumulate!`

[maleadt]

Maybe as a higher-order scan(f, ..; inclusive=true) function?

I have a simple and naive version of cumsum working. I can turn this into a version of accumulate!. Should I add this as a PR here?

[maleadt]

Yes that would be nice! Is it based on the CUDAnative example?

Happy to help work on this and contribute an efficient scan implementation.

I'm particularly interested in an efficient non-destructive mean(c, dims) where c is a non-contiguous view as it currently devolves into scalar operations.

The scan example seems to overwrite the array. I guess to make a non-destructive version you would take the work-efficient and accumulate into a temporary array?

Currently mean is pretty fast but I couldn't figure out how it's implemented.
