TornadoVM 7.3 drops JNI and JVMCI, adds CUDA library integration

TornadoVM, the open-source framework that accelerates Java workloads on CPUs and GPUs, has released version 7.3. The update replaces the Java Native Interface with the Foreign Function & Memory API, removes the experimental JVMCI dependency, and standardizes compiler metadata access across JDK 21, 25, 26 and 27 using reflection, ASM and Unsafe. It also adds a CUDA backend that supports Nvidia's cuTile model via a new TileContext and lets developers call libraries like cuBLAS and CUTLASS directly from TornadoVM TaskGraphs, with equivalent support added for Apple's MXL.
