Description

Right now the device assembler is a separate struct without the sorting logic and without the atomics. We should merge the device assembler with the other assemblers to keep features parity without duplicating the code.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the current implementations of the device assembler and the normal assemblers in the codebase. Identify differences in sorting logic and atomics handling. Plan a merge that preserves functionality for both CPU and device assembly.
