Port thrust::min|max_element to CUB

[bernhardmgruber]

Pulled out from: #4970

• Merge first: Support a custom comparison operator in DeviceReduce::ArgMin|Max #8285

Added a new thrust benchmark. Performance is overwhelmingly good, except for a few runs.

This may have been an issue in #8285, where abs() was causing integer overflow when inverting INT_MIN, etc. This was fixed and I rebased now. Let's see what the CI says.

I tried adding THRUST_INDEX_TYPE_DISPATCH and it was a lot slower!
