### What this PR does / why we need it?
Supports Deepseek-R1 w4a8 quantization.
Since R1 w4a8 uses mixed quantization, only the MOE layer uses
w4a8_dynamic quantization, so we added the w4a8_dynamic.py file, which
includes the AscendW4A8DynamicFusedMoEMethod class.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
no
### How was this patch tested?
Adding ut case in `tests/ut/quantization/test_w4a8_dynamic.py` and
`tests/ut/quantization/test_quantizer.py`
Adding e2e case in
`tests/e2e/multicard/test_offline_inference_distributed.py::test_models_distributed_DeepSeek_W4A8DYNAMIC`
to test deepseek w4a8_dynamic quantized model

chapter
Reference command：python3 quant_deepseek_w4a8.py --model_path {Original
weight path} --save_path {Generate weight path} --mindie_format
##### Adapt to vllm-ascend
Since mindie_format generates mindie format, some adaptation
modifications are needed for vllm-ascend to use it:
`quant_model_description_w8a8_dynamic.json` rename to
`quant_model_description.json`, and add `"group_size": 256`
Modification in `config.json`：`"model_type":deepseekv2` is changed to
`"model_type":deepseek_v3`; `quantization_config` is removed;
tips:The group_size and weights match. If the w4a8 weights are not
generated using msmodelslim, you can check the group_size in
quantization_config in config.json.

This PR significantly optimizes performance for quantized Mixture of
Experts (MoE) layers by changing the order of quantization and
communication operations.
In the previous implementation, the `all2all` operation was performed on
unquantized `hidden_states` (in FP16/BF16) *before* quantization,
resulting in substantial communication overhead. By performing
quantization on each EP rank **first** and then sending the much smaller
quantized data, we reduce the communication volume by nearly 50%.
Additionally, this PR includes a minor optimization to cast `int` inputs
to `float` for the `argsort` operation, forcing it to run on a faster
NPU core instead of the AICPU.
These changes lead to a clear and significant performance gain in MoE
quantization scenarios.

### What this PR does / why we need it?
Adding `W4A8_DYNAMIC` quantization support for linear.
Dense models like Qwen3 can infer with `W4A8_DYNAMIC` quantization.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
None
### How was this patch tested?
Adding ut case in `tests/ut/quantization/test_w4a8_dynamic.py`
Adding e2e case in
`tests/e2e/multicard/test_offline_inference_distributed.py::test_models_distributed_Qwen3_W4A8DYNAMIC`
to test qwen3 w4a8_dynamic quantized model
Note the w4a8_dynamic quantized model is quantized by `msit/msmodelslim`
of commit `d0abb0a47e1f1a473b866ad41b737fbc28fb1409`
1. Generate `W4A8_DYNAMIC` quantization weights using `msmodelslim`

2. Serve model using `vllm`
```shell
VLLM_USE_V1=1 python -m vllm.entrypoints.openai.api_server \
--model vllm-ascend/Qwen3-8B-W4A8 \
--port 8000 \

### What this PR does / why we need it?
This PR supports torchair graph mode with non-mla backend on both 800IA2
and 300I Duo platforms. The main change is to add
`attention_v1_torchair.py` to support specific attention related
operations that are required by torchair.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
Before this PR, vLLM-Ascend only allows deepseek to use torchair. Now we
can also use it with pangu. Besides, we add a support model list to
control which type of models that can use torchair.
### How was this patch tested?
We have test it with PanguProMoE on both 800IA2 and 300I Duo platforms,
and model generates answer normally.
