[cherry-pick][v0.11.0-dev][bugfix] Fix a rare bug triggered by _npu_paged_attention in FULL_DECODE_ONLY mode (#3987)

### What this PR does / why we need it?
This is cherry-pick from #3986 . 

This PR fixes a bug where the workspace of `_npu_paged_attention` in
setup is smaller than execution. For current implementation of
FULL_DECODE_ONLY with `_npu_paged_attention`, we use
`_npu_paged_attention_get_workspace` when capturing with `max_model_len`
as `seq_lens`. This assumes that PA with larger `seq_lens` inputs should
have larger workspace than smaller `seq_lens`. However, there are rare
cases where PA with smaller `seq_lens` incurs larger space. So I add
`get_workspace` directly into `update_attn_params`.
This change might introduce slight(≈1%) performance degradation for
small num_tokens(such as 1) in decode phase, and there is no other known
memory issues. So I think this change is acceptable. We can remove this
if new attention op (such as `npu_fused_infer_attention_score`) does not
have such problems.

# When using FULL_DECODE_ONLY, there are some rare bugs for FULL_DECODE_ONLY
# mode with GQA. This is triggered by getting workspace for _npu_paged_attention
# in torch_npu. On some rare cases, _npu_paged_attention with smaller seq_lens
# might encounter a bigger workspace, while currently we use max_model_len to
# calculate max workspace in capturing. So additional get_workspace is added
# here to avoid such bugs.
# TODO(Angazenn): we will remove this once _npu_paged_attention is fully
# replaced by npu_fused_infer_attention_score which does not contain such bugs.
