### What this PR does / why we need it?
This PR introduces support for adding custom CANN `aclnn` ops to
`vllm-ascend`, allowing users to define and use their own custom
operators.
Key changes include:
- Building and installing custom ops into the `vllm-ascend`-specified
directory
- Binding the `aclnn` op interface to the `torch.ops._C_ascend` module
- Enabling invocation of these ops within `vllm-ascend`
This PR includes a sample custom op:
`aclnnGroupedMatmulSwigluQuantWeightNzTensorList`, which is adapted from
the CANN operator
[`aclnnGroupedMatmulSwigluQuantWeightNZ`](https://www.hiascend.com/document/detail/zh/canncommercial/83RC1/API/aolapi/context/aclnnGroupedMatmulSwigluQuantWeightNZ.md).
Its input parameters `weight` and `weight_scale` now accept
`list[torch.Tensor]` (i.e., `at::TensorList`).

### What this PR does / why we need it?
Currently, there are two paths to judge the chip type in code,
`get_ascend_soc_version` use `get_soc_version` api in torch_npu, and
`is_310p` `use _build_info.__soc_version__`, which generate when
install. We need to unify the two paths.
We need to unify these codes based on the following points:
1. We need to ensure consistency in chip type judgment between compiling
and running states;
2. In compiling state, we need chip type to complete op's compilation,
but in running state, we only need device
type(910B/910_93/310P/910_95/etc) to make code branch judgement;
3. In compiling state, torch_npu may not have been installed yet, so we
can't use torch_npu's api.
Based on the above points, we have made the following changes:
1. When user set env `SOC_VERSION`, use it; when not set, query
soc_version by `npu-smi`;
2. generate device_type based on soc_version when compiling, and write
`__device_type__` instead of `__soc_version__` in `_build_info.py`;
3. In running state, use `__device_type__` to judge code branch.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
When not set env `SOC_VERSION`, it will not be `ASCEND910B1` by default,
we will query soc_version by `npu-smi`. And env `SOC_VERSION` must be in
the list `soc_to_device` in `setup.py`.

### 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?
This PR adds sleep mode feature for vllm-ascend, when sleeps, we do
mainly two things:
- offload model weights
- discard kv cache
RLHF tools(such as https://github.com/volcengine/verl and
https://github.com/OpenRLHF/OpenRLHF) have a strong need of sleep mode
to accelerate the training process.
This PR may solve #375 and #320 .
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
No existing user interfaces changed.
Users will have two new methods(`sleep()` and `wake_up()`) to use.
### How was this patch tested?
This PR is tested with Qwen/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct.
At first, we have free NPU memory M1.
After `llm = LLM("Qwen/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct", enable_sleep_mode=True)`
executed, we have free NPU memory M2. M2 < M1.
Then we call `llm.sleep(level=1)`, we have free NPU memory M3.
We have M3 > M2, M3 is very close to M1.
Plus, we have the same output tokens before sleep and after wake up,
with the config of `SamplingParams(temperature=0, max_tokens=10)` and
with the same input tokens of course.
This PR is utilizing the CMake procedure of #371 , thanks a lot.

### What this PR does / why we need it?
vLLM Ascend plugin (vllm-ascend) is a backend plugin for running vLLM on
the Ascend NPU.
This plugin is the recommended approach for supporting the Ascend
backend within the vLLM community. It adheres to the principles outlined
in the [RFC]: Hardware pluggable, providing a hardware-pluggable
interface that decouples the integration of the Ascend NPU with vLLM.
This patch also include changes to make CI work and use cache speed up
e2e test, including:
1. Change push (post merge ci) and pull_request (pr ci) trigger branch
to main
2. Make mypy work by ignore base_communicator and clear unused deps
3. Several improvements for vllm_ascend_test:
- use cache (pip, ms, hf) speed up e2e test (25mins --> 5mins)
- switch `git clone` command to `action/checkout` to speedup checkout
and
- Enable sv for pytest for better info dump
- Remove network host to resole `docker: conflicting ontions: cannot
attach both user-defined and non-user-definednetwork-modes`, which is a
problem on docker 1.45 but not on 1.39.
4. Adapt MLA decode optimizations:
