Description

This PR modifies the bias operation (see the operation-based API in #707) so that it can launch a fused kernel for computing bgrad, FP8 dgrad, and FP8 dgrad transpose.

Once #1164 is merged, this could be extended to call a fused kernel for dgelu, bgrad, FP8 dgrad, and FP8 dgrad transpose. However, it may be better to defer that to a followup PR since it will require some infrastructure changes (e.g. we want to apply different fusions in the FP8 and non-FP8 cases).
