### What this PR does / why we need it?
As part of the preparation work for the
[RFC](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-ascend/issues/6214)
We have added a documentation about npugraph_ex, which mainly explains
and introduces its usage and FX graph optimization.
The introduction to FX graph optimization also includes specific
explanations of the default passes, the implementation methods for
custom fusion passes, and how to capture the FX graph during the
optimization process through environment variable configuration.

### 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.

### What this PR does / why we need it?
This PR introduces the initial integration of **UCM (Unified Cache
Management)** into the vllm-ascend distributed KV-cache system.
Specifically, it adds:
- A new `UCMConnector` implementation under the distributed KV-transfer
framework.
- Support for offloading KV-cache blocks to external UCM backends (DRAM
/ NFS / Localdisk), depending on UCM configuration).
- Integration with vLLM V1 KV connector interface, including metadata
handling and role registration.
**Why it is needed:**
- UCM provides a unified, high-performance storage layer for KV-cache
externalization.
- This enables vllm-ascend to support out-of-core KV-cache workloads,
improve memory efficiency, and leverage hardware-accelerated storage
paths (RDMA / NFS / hybrid modes).
- This connector is a required component to allow future work on
multi-node inference + UCM-based scaling.
---
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
Yes, but limited:
- A new `kv_connector=UCMConnector` option becomes available through the
configuration interface.
- When selected, vllm-ascend workers may initialize UCM and offload
KV-cache blocks externally.
- No default behaviors are changed. Users must explicitly enable this
connector.
This PR does **not** modify:
- existing APIs,
- default execution paths,
- model runner behavior,
- user workflow unless `UCMConnector` is configured.

Currently, the usage of structured output feature in vllm-ascend is
