[refactor] Refactor the interface for shard weight and remove the flashcomm2 o_shared interface. (#5181)

### What this PR does / why we need it?
- Delete the environment variable
`VLLM_ASCEND_ENABLE_FLASHCOMM2_OSHARED`
- Introduce layer_sharding as a configurable feature in
additional_config
- Revise the term "shared weight" to "shard weight."
Configuration : The feature is opt-in via the additional_config
argument:
```
--additional-config '{
  "layer_sharding": ["o_proj", "q_b_proj"]
}'
```

This is orthogonal to standard tensor parallelism and weight replication
strategies. It is treated as a separate, explicit feature.It can be used
in any scenario, combined with the
flashcomm2https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-ascend/pull/3232 feature
or the ShardedCP #4702 feature, to achieve significant performance.

Register linear layers into a shard storage series.
In a parallel group, each device stores a distinct, non-overlapping subset of layers from the series. All layers in a series must have the same structure (are isomorphic). The weight matrix for the i-th layer is stored on device (i % n), where n is the number of devices.
After loading the model, you must call `post_process_after_loading_for_shared_weight_series(layer)` on any layer of this series to complete the initialization.

During execution, each time a new layer is reached, you must call `reach_layer_for_shared_weight_series(layer)` for that layer to prefetch the weights. The argument `prefetch_step` is a non-negative integer k that manages asynchronous weight prefetching. Each call to `reach_layer_for_shared_weight_series(current_layer)` method will trigger an asynchronous prefetch for the weights of the k-th subsequent layer after `current_layer` within the series.
