demo: Add cantilever beam GPU assembly with Gmsh

Complete GPU-accelerated FEM solve for 3D cantilever beam using
nodal assembly strategy and matrix-free Newton-Krylov solver.

GPU implementation:
- Gmsh mesh generation (same as CPU version)
- Data transfer to GPU (nodes, connectivity, BC)
- GPU kernels for nodal assembly (element contributions)
- Matrix-free Jacobian-vector product on GPU
- GMRES solver on GPU (Krylov.jl with CuArrays)
- CPU fallback for Anderson acceleration

Problem characteristics:
- Geometry: 10m × 1m × 1m cantilever beam
- Elements: Tet4 from Gmsh
- Material: Steel (E=210 GPa, ν=0.3)
- BC: Fixed left end, tip force on right end

Architecture:
- Single GPU transfer: mesh + BC → GPU at start
- Entire Newton-Krylov loop stays on GPU
- Single result transfer: u_final ← GPU at end
- No ping-pong between CPU and GPU during solve

Demonstrates complete GPU FEM pipeline from meshing to solution
with realistic geometry and material properties.
