[main][Prefill Perf] Optimize Quantized MoE Performance by Reducing All2All Communication (#2195)

This PR significantly optimizes performance for quantized Mixture of
Experts (MoE) layers by changing the order of quantization and
communication operations.

In the previous implementation, the `all2all` operation was performed on
unquantized `hidden_states` (in FP16/BF16) *before* quantization,
resulting in substantial communication overhead. By performing
quantization on each EP rank **first** and then sending the much smaller
quantized data, we reduce the communication volume by nearly 50%.

Additionally, this PR includes a minor optimization to cast `int` inputs
to `float` for the `argsort` operation, forcing it to run on a faster
NPU core instead of the AICPU.

These changes lead to a clear and significant performance gain in MoE
quantization scenarios.
