Address review: flip strides assertion, add _arr_dtype, merge main

Per @rwgk's review:
- Flip strides check to branch on view.strides (all 3 _check_view)
- Add _arr_dtype helper using __cuda_array_interface__["typestr"]
  for torch tensors, restore dtype assertion in CAI _check_view
- Merge main to pick up NVIDIA#1998 (numba flags fix)

Verified locally: 76/76 tests pass across all three test classes.
