What if users specify `-c -fgpu-bundle-device-output -emit-gpu-object` or `-c -fno-gpu-bundle-device-output -emit-gpu-bundle`? To me a single option -fgpu-bundle-device-output to control all device output seems cleaner.
The idea is to use `-emit-gpu-object` and `-emit-gpu-bundle` instead of the `-f[no-]gpu-bundle-device-output`. Otherwise they'd do exactly the same thing.
I think `-emit-gpu-{object,bundle}` has a minor edge over `-f[no-]gpu-bundle-device-output` as it's similar to other -emit options for controlling clang compilation phases (and that's what we want to do here), while `-f` options are usually for tweaking code generation.
