### What this PR does / why we need it?
This PR introduces a new model loader called Netloader, which leverages
high-bandwidth P2P direct transfer between NPU cards to achieve weight
loading. Netloader is implemented as a plugin through the newly added
'register_model_loader' function in vLLM 0.10. It facilitates the
process of weight loading by sending weights from a pre-loaded model
(server) to an empty model of a newly started instance (client). The
server operates concurrently with normal inference tasks through
sub-threads and the 'stateless_init_torch_distributed_process_group' in
vLLM. The client initiates a transfer request after verifying that the
model and partitioning method are the same as the server's, and uses
HCCL's collective communication (send/recv) to load the weights in the
order they are stored in the model.
Application Scenarios:
1. Significantly Reduces Inference Instance Startup Time By reusing the
weights of already loaded instances and performing high-speed transfers
directly between computing cards, this method reduces model loading
latency compared to traditional remote/local pull methods.
2. Reduces Network and Storage Pressure Avoids the need to repeatedly
download weight files from remote repositories, reducing the impact on
centralized storage and network traffic, thereby enhancing overall
system stability and service quality.
3. Improves Resource Utilization and Reduces Costs Accelerating the
loading process reduces reliance on redundant computing pools, allowing
computing resources to be elastically scaled and reclaimed as needed.
4. Enhances Business Continuity and High Availability In fault recovery
scenarios, new instances can quickly take over existing services,
avoiding prolonged business interruptions and improving the system's
high availability and user experience.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
Netloader utilizes the existing --load-format=netloader and
--model-loader-extra-config to be activated. The
model-loader-extra-config needs to be input as a JSON string (as it is
now)
Afterwards, you can check whether the outputs for the same sentence are
consistent when the temperature is set to 0.

# What this PR does / why we need it?
When processing a mix of large and small requests, the TTFT of responses
is significantly reduc\ed. Please refer to
https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/10235, which achieves the same
effect by simply limiting the number of prompt fills for long requests.
This solution can be applied to both AscendScheduler (V0) and vLLM
Scheduler (V1). Tests show that TTFT can be significantly improved when
handling such mixed requests. However, This capability is currently
missing when Ascend Scheduler is enabled.
This benchmark used the Qwen3-8B model, with a context length of 128K,
running on a single card.
Regarding dataset selection, the sharegpt_clean dataset is used, with
its content concatenated and cropped. Small requests with token=50 and
medium requests with token=10240 were constructed (there were also large
requests with token=102400, but these were ignored because when using
the Prefill First scheduling strategy, max_num_batched_tokens will not
be set to such a large value). When loading vLLM, set
max_num_batched_tokens=22000. This length can accommodate two
medium-sized requests and some short requests, reflecting an extreme
scenario where the budget is almost entirely occupied by longer
requests.
Next, we mix 990 small requests and 100 medium requests into one type of
load scenario (hereinafter referred to as 10%), and similarly generate
load scenarios with 5% medium requests and 1% load scenarios.
Performance tests were conducted separately for enabling vLLMScheduler,
AscendScheduler, and AscendScheduler (long prompt concurrency set to 1).

### Motivation
Currently dynamically experts balancing would stop-the-world.
Asynchronously expert load balancing would be better without flowing
problems:
Host-bound latency:
There are many cpu operations during EPLB such as
eplb-algorithm、creating p2p ops、and log2phy expert converting would
spend long cpu time, as ~1s.
Communication latency: The transfer time would cost much in the
situation without nvlink. As the weight of an expert maybe transfer to
multiple new positions, thus N times send/recv for one expert, with
result long latency. We had tested that batch_isend_irecv cost more
100ms for 16 experts weight transmission in A2 server of ascend.
SwiftBalancer would not stop-the-world anymore, in out test on NPU 1~2ms
cost for each layer while benefit 5ms-8ms decode latency with ep_size =
64.
The following updates have been made:
1、expert distribution recording with lower cost.
2、async cpu computing for eplb algo and other python operator.
3、new eplb algo with less expert rebalancing while almost the same
effect.
### Proposed Change
We will gradually migrate the EPLB logic to the VLLM community and
implement a generalized design. Relevant RFC:
https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/issues/22246
The overall workflow involves:

alt="474430541-23b06f58-23bc-44a3-a1be-00f268aeb15c"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1d73a459-1b23-4b0a-812a-bf0a75debfed"
/>
1. Record experts distribution during forward. We using expert_token_num
after disptach instead of topk_ids, thus we got much smaller tensor
shape to reduce cost of hbm recording and add-operator.
2. Do all-gather for experts distribution. Using all-gather instead of
all-reduce as less traffic volume.
3. Wake up eplb worker process with experts distribution when
num_iterations comes. Run eplb algorithm in eplb worker.
4. Generate p2p send/recv ops and other operator such as log2phy would
cost long cpu time.
5. Lanch ibatch_send_recv in async_stream before forward.
6. After forward, wait for the ibatch_send_recv finish, then do uapte
expert map and expert weights.
