Release transient SYCL queues at the end of each test file to avoid OOM on low-memory GPUs#3001

Conversation
Every distinct SyclQueue a test creates is retained forever as a key in dpctl's SequentialOrderManager (keyed by queue identity), which pins its host-task events and the backing USM memory for the whole session. Over a full run this accumulates hundreds of queues and steadily drains device memory, occasionally triggering out-of-resources failures on low-memory GPU devices. Add a pytest_runtest_teardown hook that drains and drops the order-manager entries at each test-file boundary, keeping the footprint flat without paying the cost after every individual test.

Running the full test suite in a single process steadily drains device memory and can end in a
RuntimeError: ... UR_RESULT_ERROR_OUT_OF_RESOURCES(seen intermittently on a low-memory iGPU, where the kernel logsVM worker error: -12/exec queue reset detected).Root cause: every distinct
dpctl.SyclQueuea test creates is retained for the whole session as a key in dpctl'sSequentialOrderManager(the map is keyed by queue identity and only ever grows). Each retained entry holds a host-task event that pins the backing USM allocation, so the memory is never released. Over a full run the map accumulates ~300 queuesand free device memory bleeds from several GB down to ~1 GB, occasionally crossing the device limit.
This is amplified on integrated GPUs, where "device memory" is system RAM, so the leaked USM competes directly with the host and the container's memory budget.
