Rebuild the docs for `cuda.bindings` 11.8.x?

This is something we could do, if we backport the needed pieces from #165, and figure out a way to robustly keep both 11.8.x and 12.x docs updated (make the docs rebuildable as needed).

@vzhurba01 WDYT?

The only useful docs from 11.8.x are the API References and I can see the benefit of adding a versioned doc like 11.8.5 so that these become web accessible. Backporting only the needed pieces looks ok.

I'd hope to avoid requiring a new version each time a patch gets released but I'm not sure if that's ideal either since we had issue https://github.com/NVIDIA/cuda-python/issues/140. If we decide that that issue is a one-off, then we could simplify the versioned doc to be 11.x and avoid extra work. Then when 13.0 arrives, we can create a version 12.x to follow suit. Again though because of that issue perhaps the extra work is justified. What do you think?

https://github.com/NVIDIA/cuda-python/discussions/388 could be another motivation.

We are dropping support for CUDA 11 very soon. This is moot.
