This does *allow*, but under no circumstances is this currently going to be
used: all potentially applicable data is non-'ephemeral', and thus not
considered for 'gomp_coalesce_buf_add' for OpenACC 'async'. (But a use will
emerge later.)

"Don't use libgomp 'cbuf' buffering with OpenACC 'async'", addressing this
TODO comment:
TODO ... but we could allow CBUF usage for EPHEMERAL data? (Open question:
is it more performant to use libgomp CBUF buffering or individual device
asyncronous copying?)
Ephemeral data is small, and therefore individual device asyncronous copying
does seem dubious -- in particular given that for all those, we'd individually
have to allocate and queue for deallocation a temporary buffer to capture the
ephemeral data. Instead, just let the 'cbuf' *be* the temporary buffer.
libgomp/
* target.c (gomp_copy_host2dev, gomp_map_vars_internal): Allow
libgomp 'cbuf' buffering with OpenACC 'async' for 'ephemeral'
data.
