Building native modules:

• Linux/MacOS:

  cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
    -DCMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY="$PWD/src/geon/_native"
  cmake --build build -j
  

• On Windows (MSVC), use:

  cmake -S . -B build -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A x64 ^
    -DCMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_RELEASE="%CD%\\src\\geon\\_native"
  cmake --build build --config Release
  

• OpenMP is used for some kernels when available.
