Description

This PR removes things deprecated with the February release. In particular, it

  • drops support for X_DIM and friends (use I_DIM and friends)
  • removes is_gpu_backend() and backend_is_fortran_aligned() from gt4py_utils since those attributes can and should now be queried on the Backend object.

How has this been tested?

All good as long as CI is green.
