* feat(cann): add optional support for ACL Graph execution
This commit adds support for executing ggml computational graphs using
Huawei's ACL graph mode via the USE_CANN_GRAPH flag. The support can be
enabled at compile time using the CMake option:
-DUSE_CANN_GRAPH=ON
By default, ACL graph execution is **disabled**, and the fallback path
uses node-by-node execution.
Key additions:
- CMake option to toggle graph mode
- Graph capture and execution logic using
- Tensor property matching to determine whether graph update is required
- Safe fallback and logging if the environment variable LLAMA_SET_ROWS
is unset or invalid
This prepares the backend for performance improvements in repetitive graph
execution scenarios on Ascend devices.

Submit operators using asynchronous threads to improve performance.
Use the environment variable GGML_CANN_ASYNC_MODE to control whether
asynchronous submission is enabled. It is disabled by default.
Testing shows a 10%–20% performance improvement in scenarios with
small parameter sizes, especially in quantized models.
