[bugfix] fix torchair runtime error caused by configuration mismtaches and file missing (#2532)

### What this PR does / why we need it?
This PR ports #2312 #2506 #2531 to main branch.

Original implementation of torchair caching forces users to make
everything prepared, fix all the configuration and enable
`use_cached_npu_graph`, and it might cause some problems confusing to
understand and tackle for users. It is better to compile the graph twice
instead of reusing the old kvcaches and cached torchair graph. And the
extra duration time is acceptable. Additionally, this pr fixes a
recompilation problem of torchair graph mode caused by
`running_in_graph` variable in `AscendMLATorchairImpl`.

### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
If users want to enabling torchair.cache_compile with high compilation
speed, it is recommended to enable both `use_cached_kv_cache_bytes` and
`use_cached_graph` in `torchair_graph_config`. Without
`use_cached_kv_cache_bytes`, we'll compile torchair computation graph
twice to avoid runtime error caused by configuration mismtaches (the
second compilation will be much faster). Additionally, we've made a
change to how the TORCHAIR_CACHE_HOME enviroment variable is utilized to
enhance safety and prevent accidental file deletion by adding a suffix
directory.

### How was this patch tested?
CI and e2e vllm serving pass.
