It would be useful to formalize the minimal set of ops necessary for a dtype to be used in scaling factors. i.e. typically mul, min, max, add?, ...

That would simplify the support of E8M0 scaling dtype necessary for MX formats support (see #21 ).

Note: #75 shows there is a requirement as well for safe_div and safe_reciprocal for scale datatypes.
