Description

For example, look at the FArrayKokkos, where there is an optional tag_string that is used to name the array for debugging purposes. We need an equivalent in all of our host only types. This will require us to add a const std::string to our functors to store the string.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the existing FArrayKokkos implementation (kokkos types.h line 152) with optional tag string for naming arrays. Then replicate the same pattern in host only types (host types.h line 73) by adding a const std::string member to the functors.
