This PR adds the support for Boost Fiber backend with Alpaka and fixes some typos in the alpaka
Makefile. As for now, the backend has poor performance with respect to theserialbackend, but it might be worth having it for future tests and developments (this is also under discussion in the alpaka team).Currently, for the management of the work division we set the number of threads to 1, and the elements per thread to N (i.e. 32). Currently debugging the fiber backend in order run with N number of threads (i.e. 32) and the 1 element per thread.
