Shanshan Shen 5c0d02f689 [Bugfix] Fix multi-instance serving OOM on single card (#7427)
### What this PR does / why we need it?
Fix https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-ascend/issues/7308.

Subtracting `init_non_torch_memory` (maybe used by the first instance)
from the total `non_torch_memory` when calculating
`available_kv_cache_memory`.

Directly use `non_torch_memory_increase` (contained in
`non_kv_cache_memory`) to calculate `available_kv_cache_memory`.

### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
No.

### How was this patch tested?
Launch tow vllm-ascend instances sequentially on single card.

```bash
# Launch first instance
vllm serve /root/.cache/modelscope/hub/models/Qwen/Qwen3-0.6B \
--port 8100 \
--host 0.0.0.0 \
--additional-config='{"enable_cpu_binding":true}'  \
--gpu-memory-utilization 0.3 \
--max-num-seqs 1 \
--max-model-len 2048 \
--max-num-batched-tokens 2048 \
--no-enable-prefix-caching \
--enforce-eager

# Launch second instance
vllm serve /root/.cache/modelscope/hub/models/Qwen/Qwen3-0.6B \
--port 8101 \
--host 0.0.0.0 \
--additional-config='{"enable_cpu_binding":true}'  \
--gpu-memory-utilization 0.3 \
--max-num-seqs 1 \
--max-model-len 2048 \
--max-num-batched-tokens 2048 \
--no-enable-prefix-caching \
--enforce-eager
```
