Uses DLFP8Types as it has the exact types needed.
It could be nice to in the future support multiple narrow precision type implementations (see Reactant/DLFP8TypesExt.jl), like Float8s.jl and Microfloats.jl (which currently has a
MX_E4M3equivalent toFloat8_E4M3FN), but there's no immediate need since Float8s.jl doesn't haveFloat8_5, nor a type for finite-only, single NaN encoding.I can resolve any potential merge conflicts caused by #34.
