Description

As the title said, the public and detail headers should have the same names. Currently there are some inconsistencies between them. For example:

  • Public header: cudf/copying.hpp,
  • Detail header: cudf/detail/copy.hpp.

We should change the file names to make them consistent.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Rename the public and detail header files to have matching names (e.g., rename `cudf/detail/copy.hpp` to `cudf/detail/copying.hpp`). Update all include directives and include guards throughout the codebase to reflect the new file names. Ensure consistency across all such pairs.
