All kernel specialisation is now performed in the background regardless of kernel type, meaning that the first render will be visible a few seconds sooner. The only exception is during benchmark warm up, in which case we wait for all kernels to be cached. When stopping a render, we call a new `cancel()` method on the device which causes any outstanding compilation work to be cancelled, and we destroy the device in a detached thread so that any stale queued compilations can be safely purged without blocking the UI for longer than necessary.
