reasoning
The task is to replace the forward computation of a PyTorch model with a custom CUDA kernel. The model does a 1D convolution followed by GroupNorm. I need to create a custom CUDA kernel that fuses a 1D convolution and GroupNorm for a PyTorch model, replacing its forward computation. The goal is to make it faster than the reference while keeping outputs numerically equivalent. I'll use `torch.utils.cpp_extension.load_inline` to compile and bind the CUDA kernel directly in a Python file defining `ModelNew`. The specs are: input channels 128, output 256, kernel size 3, stride 1, padding 1, sequence length 1024, batch size 16, and GroupNorm with 32 groups.
