This RFC proposes to rename `gpu` to `cuda`. Two main reasons for this renaming:

1. There are now more kinds of GPUs, e.g., AMD Radeon GPUs and Qualcomm Adreno 
GPUs.
2. Mainstream frameworks like PyTorch clearly indicate CUDA device, e.g., 
PyTorch uses `torch.cuda` to support CUDA tensor types, so this renaming will 
make it more consistent with the other frameworks.

We have a related [RFC](https://github.com/dmlc/dlpack/issues/67) for DLPack. 
Look forward to hearing your thoughts!
