Description

cuDF requires nvcc 12.9 to compile from source. This updates our contributing guide to reflect this requirement.

Hangs in cicc have been observed when compiling stable_sort_column.cu with CUDA 12.8 for certain architectures, but CUDA 12.9 works fine.

See also nvbug 5825703.

Summary:
This PR upgrades Velox's adaptors images to CUDA 12.9. This is now a [build-time requirement for cuDF](rapidsai/cudf#21186).

cuDF is still compatible with CUDA 12.2+ at runtime, only the build-time requirement has increased.
