[DP][V1] Fix rank set in DP scenario & Bump torch-npu version to 2.5.1.post1.dev20250528 (#1235)

### What this PR does / why we need it?
1. Fix rank set in DP scenario. The new poc version of torch-npu support
setting `ASCEND_RT_VISIBLE_DEVICES` dynamically, thus we could use the
rank set in `DPEngineCoreProc` directly instead of calculating local
rank across dp by hand in the patched `_init_data_parallel`

Closes: https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-ascend/issues/1170

2. Bump torch-npu version to 2.5.1.post1.dev20250528

Closes: https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-ascend/pull/1242
Closes: https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-ascend/issues/1232


### How was this patch tested?
CI passed with new added test.
