[Feat][Spec] Optimize token index calculation in spec decode with Triton kernel (#5356)

### What this PR does / why we need it?
Replace multiple PyTorch operations with a fused Triton kernel to
determine token indices for sampling during speculative decoding. This
reduces kernel launch overhead and memory traffic, improving overall
performance on Ascend hardware.
