MiningUniforms carries the twelve diagonal constants (416 bytes now) and
the loop kernel reads them there (LAIR_LOOP_PARAM_DIAG=1) instead of from
the __constant__ table. Static: still 13 loads per internal round (ptxas
reloads either way) but spill 88 -> 32 bytes. Measured, three interleaved
rounds, loop kernel only: beast 2135 -> 2162 MH/s (+1.3%), benjy 725 ->
730 (+0.7%); parity 300/300 and 200/200. The unrolled kernel is byte-
identical (21,120 instructions, 110 registers).

4572a5e567 engine-cuda: attribute the loop kernel's internal-round excess; drop two no-op knobs 
Constant hoisting in C and 32-bit-halves delivery of the diagonal both
compile to byte-identical SASS and are removed. The remaining 40
instructions per round over the quanpool kernel are itemised in the
kernel comment.

338b4a7d32 engine-cuda: LAIR_MULADD screening variants (0 stays; 1-4 measured worse) 
Static screen on sm_120, loop kernel internal round body: 0 = 239,
1 = 260, 2 = 283, 3 = 275, 4 = 265 instructions.
