classes inheriting from Ndarray should have their memory released
Issue: #8763
Brief Summary
ScalarNdarray implements del() to allow python to get rid of the allocated memory,
but other subclasses of Ndarray (like VectorNdarray() or MatrixNdarray()) don't implement the same behaviour.
Seems to me the del() method should be moved to the Ndarray class.
I tested this simple change and indeed it fixes the memory leak.
Walkthrough
If, instead:
Note
Move deletion logic to
Ndarray.__del__so all ndarray variants free device memory; remove subclass-specific__del__fromScalarNdarray.Ndarray.__del__to delete underlyingarrviart.prog.delete_ndarray(...)when runtime/program exist.ScalarNdarray.__del__; destruction is now handled centrally by base class for all ndarray subclasses.python/taichi/lang/_ndarray.pyto centralize deletion logic and add safety checks (impl/arr/runtime/progpresence).Written by Cursor Bugbot for commit 4e58132.
