Pull request overview
This PR adds documentation for 10 previously undocumented metrics specific to the gfx942 (MI300) architecture, improving the completeness of profiling documentation for this hardware generation.
Changes:
- Added metric descriptions for gfx942-specific hardware counters across memory, compute, and cache subsystems
- Updated configuration hash database to reflect the documentation changes
- Added changelog entry documenting the metric description additions

Add metric descriptions for gfx942 metrics that were previously missing descriptions across multiple hardware blocks: - Memory Chart (sL1D): 1 metric - Compute Pipeline (MFMA): 2 metrics - Address Processing Unit (TA): 3 metrics - L2 Cache (Fabric Interface): 1 metric Additionally, add RST descriptions in per-arch yaml for: - Speed-of-Light panels: 3 metrics - Cache access metrics: 2 metrics Update config hashes for consistency verification.

Motivation
This PR adds metric descriptions for 10 gfx942 (MI300) metrics that were previously missing descriptions across the following hardware blocks:
These descriptions provide essential context for users profiling and analyzing performance on gfx942 architecture (MI300 series), including details on hardware counters, stall conditions, and architectural behavior specific to MI300's advanced features like F8 MFMA operations.
Technical Details
This PR uses material such as:
